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?

[–] theroastedtoaster@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day 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
