Hi there,does anybody have some more details on this kind of weapon:It is said to be a weapon designed by Zippermayr to be used agains airplanes duplicated in miniature the effects of tornados. In his experiments, Z. shot a projectile filled with powdered coal dust and a charge of finely grained tough-surfaced double base propellant from a mortar. When the projectile apprached the vicinity of a plane the propellant was exploded by means of an initiator. the combination of the forward component of velocity of the coal particles (created by the movement of the projectile) and a lateral component of velocity (created by the explosion of the propellant) was upposed to create a sort of tornado.Report pages or images appreciated.
