As for a bullet hole downing the ISS.................HELL YES it would.

air leaks out..................vacuum gets in..................crumple crumple. The whole station would be crushed like a tin can.


You may be thinking about a submarine.... :wink:
Perhaps the weapon is for the on board Air Marshall :lol:

Nah you see submarines are built with 2 hulls. A bullet would only pierce the inner hull.

P.S.~~~why would an air marshall be on a submarine?

That's just silly talk.

:P

I know a guy who was in the armed forces (British) and they told me about the effects different missiles/shells have on tanks.

Inside the tank when the hatch is closed its a sealed "vacuum"........and when some types of shells penetrate the armour (the hole is pin sized)..........anyone inside is instantly vapourised and sucked out through the hole.

I hope this isnt classified info.

We were but now we are discussing the finer points of explosive decompression and implosion.

See it's all relative.
