Q: How WELL do incendiary rounds work?
Somewhat. Incendiary rounds will NOT ignite everything that is shot with it. And it may take several or hundreds of rounds to start a good fire quickly.
Recently on the Discovery Channel "Mythbusters", they tried to replicate a scene in a James Bond movie where he shoots a Propane tank with his pistol and it explodes. They could not get a gas tank to explode by shooting it with a regular pistol or with indendiary rounds. They even fired a round into the tank to get it to disperse the gas and fired another round through the gas. That surpised me.
During WW1, the Germans climbed that the Allied pilots were firing "explosive rounds" that caused their airplanes to burn so easily. I don't know if this was a problem with language translation but they were using indendiary rounds. WW1 pilots also loaded indendiary rounds when they wanted to shoot down a balloon, which was filled with explosive hydrogen gas. So I guess they worked in those cases.
Yes.
