Forty terminal ballistics experiments were performed to measure the penetration of simple confined boron carbide targets by long tungsten rods. Impact velocities ranged from 1.5 to about 5.0km/s. The experiments were performed in the reverse ballistic mode using a two-stage light-gas gun. For tests
