Matt......do you have any concept of what kind of armor aircraft do not have?

Shy of a round hitting something like a gear box....they usually go right the way through both sides of the aircraft.

Even 7.62 size rounds make a lot noise as they whiz through.....and .50 Caliber really make a racket when they hit something hard like a main piece of structure. As to RPG's.....they leave huge gaping holes on the way out
