 Now, the weapon they used was what we call a sabot round. Now, sabot rounds are kind of an interesting weapon. When this slams into a target, whatever the missile's made of, the shell's made of, vaporizes almost instantly. The needle, which looks a little bit like a cone, melts the armor of whatever it hit and then goes inside. I know in the Gulf War, I saw tanks that had been hit by sabot rounds. On the outside, they don't look too bad.
