What’s the name of that gif supposed to mean ?

Something like "Shaped charge animation" I think

Cumulative stream animation

I don't think there's a ricochet, as (if my memory is right), bazookas use a shaped charge and that hole is caused by a jet of plasma.

Pretty high tech for the time.

That’s very cool! The plasma is caused by the heat?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Plasma isn't quite correct. It's more like a jet of metal (usually copper) travelling so fast it behaves closer to a liquid
