Recently, Musk did a big job. He said that the Tesla team used Tommy submachine gun to empty the whole magazine, and failed to penetrate the door panel of Cybertruck, which confirmed the bulletproof ability of the car.
Musk recently appeared on Logan's podcast and talked about Tesla Cybertruck. In the interview, Musk claimed that the bow and arrow could not penetrate the car's shell, but the more powerful crossbow might.
The two sides also made a bet that the bet was $1, so Logan chose an 80-pound compound bow and an arrow with a broadhead arrow in 525 grains to directly test Tesla Cybertruck.
Although the 80-pound compound bow is very powerful and can even be used to hunt black bears, it also lost in the face of Cybertruck.
I have to say that Cybertruck is really strong, but in fact, the previous test was also clever.
Some professional firearms enthusiasts pointed out through analysis that in the previous shooting test, the Tesla team used a slower pistol bullet instead of a more penetrating AK47 rifle bullet.
In the face of this doubt, Musk had to admit the truth. He said that this car is indeed bulletproof, but only for a very small number of bullets. "The door panel is bulletproof for almost all subsonic bullets."
Sounds great? It's avoiding the heavy weight again, because few bullets fly at subsonic speed.
According to the data, subsonic bullets are a special niche field in the bullet market. Most guns, including bullets fired by spring-loaded air rifles, are supersonic, and even the .22LR entry-level caliber bullets that are ignored by many people can fly at supersonic speed.
