Thermite-
It was (may still be) in armor peircing rockets and grenades...
It is EXTREMELY explosive and corrosive...
but it will not light with a simple flame or fuse... you need magnesium ribbon to ignite it...
yah... I've played with that stuff... that ain't nothing... baby stuff:yawn: :sleeping:

Thermite... ahh yes....
You can make yer own, check around.
all you need if i remember correctly, is something very rusty, some aluminum cans, and a file. Just file the rust off and get a pile of rust, then file down the cans as well. not sure of the portions..... anyways, you mix the aluminum and rust in a skillet and cook em, cant remember temp. and yes, you DO need magnesium ribbon to light it.
check around, you CAN make this stuff. its been so long i dont remember the portions or cooking temp, but once you make it that **** will damn near eat through an engine block.

When we did it we used thermite that we found in a chemical closet at school... same with the magnesium ribbon...
I think I'm gonna have to make some of this up...
