Question:

Can a .50 bmg rifle/machine gun destroy a modern L.A.V.?

Could a FMJ round from a .50 bmg round penetrate the armor of a MODERN (i know it can shred older ones) light armored vehicle like the military uses today?I saw a few at an airshow and the armor looked like about half an inch of rolled steel, i don't think it could stop one, do you?

Answer:

Yes it can, A 50 cal round will easily rip through half an inch of steel, especially what they make the lightly armoured vehicles out of, im in the army and the Hmmwv is made of aluminum, the body, hood is fiberglassa 50 call will destroy that thing even at 1000 meters.
