What is your beef? Be specific.
Your use of selective physics.
Is this you being specific?
The reason a 1000 lb penetrating warhead can penetrate hardened targets is due to the mass of the warhead being focused on the point of impact.
If you throw a spear into a tree, the mass of the spear is focused on the point of impact and it pierces the tree.
If you throw a spear sideways at the tree, the spear can hit the tree with the same velocity and the same mass and still not impale the tree because
the mass isn't focused on a small point.
The missile applies the velocity and the mass at a small point of impact, like the spear head or like a bullet, whereas the aluminum wings slapping
into the tower are like the spear hitting the tree sideways.
It is you who is being dishonest by using selective physics.
Are you ready to address the dents on the wrong side of the columns now? The damage indicates a left-right motion.
