  1.  @watcherzero5256  TNT contains no nitroglycerin. Those are discretely two different explosive compositions. You are undoubtedly thinking of clay matrix dynamite. When TNT gets old, it decomposes and becomes less sensitive. C4 is very insensitive. The Army has a term, 'double capper', meaning that you pay attention to detail and do the job right the first time. Its from the Engineers and refers specifically to the standard practice of 'double capping' C4(taping two caps together) for reliable initiation, because its common for only one cap to be insufficient.

  2. 25% protection against APFSDS, which has at least two confirmed 'double kills'(one round penetrated two tanks in a row).
