Your right at least in part, I thought of that before
I posted the other post but I wanted to make a point.,
however at 2000mph ( could have been 3000) even over the short distance between the tank and the wing I doubt the difference in speed could have been much less than a 300mph impact, and up to 1000mph. but that is just a guess.

There would have been a substanual difference between
Ice and Foam due to density..the ice would have more
density and not slowed down as fast, ( hence impact
speed would have been less but likely caused more
damage )
From the tape I saw I don't think the shutter speed
of the camera was fast enough to get enough
resolution to tell if it was ice or foam.
The camera would have had to have a super fast shutter speed, to make a determination.
