During the Winter War( 1939-1940 ) beeten the Soviet Union and Finland no thing where more scarier to the russian soldiers that going on patrol , they know that it was a suicaide mission due to one of the most clear exapmples of the One Man Army phrase , they know that at any moment a well placed bullet in the head will end whit their lives , they know that they where been watched by no other that  The White Death .  The White Death was the nickname of the finnish sniper Simo Haya , the men whit most kills durnig a war , and really is !!! he kill no less than 505 confirmed kills whit his sniper rifle , a modified Mosin -Nagat and an other 200 kills whit an Sumoi KP/31 sub machine gun , giving a total number of 705 kills (confirmed ones) in a time of 100 days. He was so good at sniping that no matter what soviets try , they never kill him , they use counter sniper teams , artillery etc , but nothing can stop the White Death of taking his prices , it was on a March 6 1940 , when his killing wave will finally stop during a combat one lucky russian soldier manage to shot Haya in the face , but he was not so lucky to kill him he just wounded him , because belive or not he survive to his injurys , take a lot of time and change the way his face look but he survive . The thing that made this men so good and so feard was the metods he use to evade the spotting , he never use telescopic sight because in cold wheater it fog , also because the light reflection can reveal his potiton , he bury himself in snow so well that when he fire no one know where the shot came from , it also put snow in his mouth to uncover the breath of giving away his potition.

Whats Ballistic?

Ballistic is the part of sciense that studies the behavior ,flight and effects of proyectils like bullets , gravity bombs and rockets .


Is also divided in 2 groups , Gun Ballistic and Forensic ballistic each one have a different function and is use for different porpouses , here are the caracteristics of each one



Gun Ballistic: is the one that studies the time of bullet flight to the impact in the target and is divided in the categories below


  • Internal ballistics (sometimes called interior ballistics): the study of the processes originally accelerating the projectile, for example the passage of a bullet through the barrel of a rifle




  • Transition ballistics (sometimes called intermediate ballistics): the study of the projectile's behavior when it leaves the barrel and the pressure behind the projectile is equalized.




  • External ballistics (sometimes called exterior ballistics): the study of the passage of the projectile through a medium, most commonly earth's atmosphere.




  • Terminal ballistics: the study of the interaction of a projectile with its target, whether that be flesh (for a hunting bullet), steel (for an anti-tank round), or even furnace slag (for an industrial slag disruptor).







  • Forensic Ballistic : is the one that is in charge to detrminatie and study the bullets or bullet impact in the scene of a crime in order to show its results to the court or to every other legal system to be used in a crime invastigation.
