The museum has in it's collection an Allison T56-A-9 engine that has been the target in some sort of of trials work. The damage seems to be a combination of light calbibre fire and possibly laser or other cutting equioment. Can anyone shed any light? Attached Image

One of the museum members was part of this exercise. The white painted damage is from the first detonation, the unpainted from the second.
