Low velocity impact tests have been conducted on paper honeycomb sandwich panels. Two panel thicknesses with span length of 100 mm are used; these are 35 mm and 41 mm, respectively. The dynamic behavior of each paper honeycomb thickness is investigated using two types of indentors: hemispherical and bar. The effect of indentor, and specimen length are studied. This includes the pattern of load- displacement curve collapse load and energy absorbed. It concludes that the dynamic collapse load on 41 mm thickness for hemispherical indentor increases by 5% compared with 35 mm. The impact energy absorbed for hemispherical indentor increases by 36%
