    I’d say take cover, but the tungsten pellets go through engine blocks and truck frames. Only thing saving you would be distance and angle of the attack I think.

      tungsten is not some magic material and it makes sense only in select large weapons, like 100mm-ish diameter and up. it’s not used there anyway

      I’ve been unable to find it, but I remember seeing a video of russian filming a truck that was hit by tungsten pellets from a nearby cluster munition. It’s insane how everything seems like butter when up against those tungsten balls.
