It's pretty tough to destroy 2.5 tons of steel, leather, and wood.

 

That's not a standard Phantom. It's the armored version:

 

Wow that was pretty crazy.

 

Good point. In that case, it'll take a lot more explosives than that to destroy 3+ tons of steel, leather, and wood.

 

This is a great point, though I'm not sure you meant to make it. The (relatively) small amount of high explosive used in these tests to achieve a specific armor level certification (5, 7, etc.) is just that -- small. Your typical IED is going to have a LOT bigger punch. Tests like the one in that vid basically show that a hand grenade tossed under the car won't breach the passenger compartment, but if they drive over a 22lb anti-tank mine, MUCH different story.

 

The Phantom Armoured is VR7 certified.

 

Amazing!
