About: Vortex Ring Gun   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/TGVw_48bfxR4O_s_eW_eZQ==, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

The concept was explored by the US Army starting in 1998, and by some commercial firms. Knockdown of distant individuals currently seems unlikely even if the rings are launched at theoretical maximum speed, the speed of sound. As for the delivery of chemicals, leakage during flight is still a problem.[citation needed] Weapons based on similar principles but different designs and purposes have been described before, typically using acetylene-air or hydrogen–oxygen explosions to create and propel the vortices.
