Chicken gun at a Rolls Royce Trent 500
Famous chicken gun used as a bird strike test for jet engines. This is taken from a Rolls Royce Trent 500 promo video. The chickens are packed in polystyrene and fired like a Sabot round. The white stuff breaking off is not ice, just polystyrene. Anyone that thinks these are frozen chickens is a fool.
