Having been through a rapid depressurization at 35,000ft, I can tell you it's no laughing matter. It's not a catastrophic, crash inducing phenomenon, but serious none the less. In my single experience, an observation port blew out on the flight deck of a KC 135 Strato Tanker, killing the boom operator who was sitting in the navigator's position. The rapid pressure loss caused a fogging effect and the pilot's quick reaction to dive for lower altitude had the effect of nearly negating gravity for those of use not strapped in at that moment. It was an interesting experience and had it not been for the fatality which I only found out about after we were safely on the ground, one I would remember rather fondly as I had no duty(passenger) to perform and was able to ride out the excitement as an observer.
I doubt any number of bullet holes in an air frame would have any serious effect on the aircraft unless they managed to damage several redundant control systems simultaneously.
Real question: How frequently does over penetration of a human bad guy occur with 9mm or .357sig JHP?

If the bullet does not impact bone, then many times a standard service caliber will exit the body. So there is "danger" with over penetration, but if the bullet has expanded fully after slowing down in the body, it poses much less of a deadly threat than collateral damage from missing your intended target. Lighter projectiles with lower sectional densities will penetrate less if they fully expand.Originally Posted by Rich@CCC

Yes. Spetsnaz would really work with this ammo. Especially if they worked "dynamic" into the ad-copy. "Quasi-thermobaric" would work as well, particularly if it is in the same sentence as "Spetsnaz" and "dynamic."
