Lightweight metal foam turns armor-piercing bullets into dust

Not sure if this has been posted here or not, but this is VERY interesting and could be a game-changer in the world of body armor -- ultra-light "Metal Foam" that stops just about any caliber.

Of course, if / when this makes it into production I suspect it will be "restricted" to MIL/LE only. They can't have "We the People" as well protected as their Stormtroopers.
