Abstract
The aim of the invention is to combine the cascade effect of frangible pellets (25) with sub-projectiles (27, 28, 30) consisting of a ductile heavy metal and thus to create ammunition (10) that combines the advantages of, for example, frangible pellets (25) of a central penetrator (24) with the advantages of the ductile heavy metals (27, 28) of an external penetrator (26). This permits an improved performance to be achieved for different targets even at low impact velocities. The external penetrator is arc-shaped or banana-shaped.
Description
Universal KE Projectile, in particular for Medium-Calibre Munitions The present invention relates to a universal kinetic-energy (KE) projectile, --to a method for manufacturing said projectile, and its use.
Known types of munitions frequently have no penetrative effect when used against modern targets, so that there is a need for a type of munition that has a powerful destructive effect at the target. This is achieved by means of a great fragmentation effect around and into the target. In addition, this destructive effect is enhanced by the blast that is generated.
EP 0 853 228 B 1 describes a projectile of this kind as well as a method for producing it.
By using this method it is possible to manufacture projectiles with a single or multi-part projectile body (penetrator or penetrator parts) of various shapes and sizes, and do so simply and rapidly. The projectile casing comprises a projectile tip that is attached rigidly to the jacket of the projectile; the projectile tip has an internal centering device within which the projectile is guided and held. The rear of the projectile jacket is closed off by a seal that partially encloses the projectile body. In such projectiles, which are referred to as full-calibre KE projectiles, the projectile jacket has a rear that is frequently of aluminum, but which may also be of steel. The ballistic tip of the projectile is also of aluminum, although it may also be of plastic.
Because of their kinetic energy, Frangible Armour Piercing (FAP) projectiles are effective against various targets. These projectiles have a core that is of frangible material that, according to EP 0 853 228 B1, can be made up of different frangible pellets. Both frangible and ductile heavy metals have been proposed as materials for these parts of the projectile bodies. The core can, for example, be covered with plastic by injection moulding. .
As is known, in the case of FAP projectiles performance at the target depends on their impact velocity. First, the tip of the projectile must break away from the projectile jacket in order that the frangible core can become effective. Energy is also needed for the frangible core to break away. Very often, at low impact velocities (for example at long ranges), the energy is so slight that the core does not fragment sufficiently, with the result that there is less dispersal in the target. In addition, it is characteristic of a core of this kind that-for example, during tests to simulate different targets-in a stacked target it shatters into a number of fragments. These fragments break up even more at the next plate in what is referred to as the cascade effect. These fragments can become so small that they do not have enough energy to enable them to penetrate the next plate, which is to say that the desired dispersal effect collapses after a few plates (at greater target depths).
The Internet address http://www.wehrtechnik.net/ wehrtechnik/frap.htmi sets out the advantages of a fragmenting payload (FRAP). Among their other features, such munitions, which are known as munitions for on-board cannon, no longer have high-explosive fillings and impact detonators. More details about FRAP munitions and pre-fragmented tungsten masses are provided in the paper titled "Fragmenting Payload Ammunition FRAP" that was presented by Allan Buckley and Pierre Freymond at the NDIA 37~' Gun & Ammo Symposium, 15 - 18 April 2002, in Panama City (http ://www. dtic.mil/ndia/2002 aun/buckley.pdf ).
It is the objective of the present invention to enhance the dispersal effect at the target.
Additionally, it is intended to achieve the greatest possible penetrative effect against a monobloc target.

It is the objective of the present invention to enhance the dispersal effect at the target.
Additionally, it is intended to achieve the greatest possible penetrative effect against a monobloc target.
According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided universal KE projectile with a projectile tip, a projectile jacket and a projectile base, which includes a central penetrator, an outer penetrator being attached around the central penetrator, said outer penetrator containing spherical and/or cylindrical ductile heavy metals, and being arc-shaped or banana-shaped.
The underlying concept of the present invention is to combine the cascade effect of the frangible pellets with sub-projectiles of ductile heavy metals, which is to say, to create a 2a munition in which the advantages of a central penetrator of, for example, frangible pellets are combined with the advantages of the heavy metals of an outer penetrator.
One property of ductile heavy metal is that it does not break up when it strikes the target plate, so that a good cone of fragmentation can develop.
DE 40 16 051 C2 describes a jacketed penetrator for a KE projectile that protects the pressure-sensitive penetrator as a ductile coating. This coating is secured to the penetrator in such a manner that it is rigid when fired, thereby permitting economical series production. In contrast to this, the outer penetrator, which is preferably arc-shaped and made up of individual sub-projectiles, is meant to trigger a buckling effect so that the projectile jacket that is positioned around the outer penetrator bursts immediately and the sub-projectiles are released. After assembly, these sub-projectiles are fixed within the outer penetrator by injected plastic; this entails the advantage that the projectile jacket surrounding the outer penetrator can be very thin. This thin jacket then simply opens in the target.
The central penetrator of frangible pellets is effective mainly in a monobloc target, and this makes this a universal projectile.
An FAP projectile with a fragmenting payload concept is also created.
The present invention is described in greater detail below on the basis of an embodiment shown in the drawings appended hereto. These drawings show the following:
Figure 1: a complete munition, in cross section;
Figure 2: a cross section through the front part of the projectile shown in Figure 1;
Figure 3: a variant of a cross section of the front part shown in Figure 1;
Figure 4: a further variant of Figure 1.

Figure 1 shows a munition 10 that fundamentally includes a projectile 1, a guide band 2, grooves 3, a cartridge case 4, and a propellant charge 5.
In order to show it with greater clarity, the projectile 2 is shown in cross section in Figure 2, this Figure 2 incorporating a first embodiment.
The projectile 2-a universal KE projectile-comprises a projectile tip 20, a projectile jacket 21, and a projectile base 22. A central penetrator is numbered 24; it is preferred that this be made up of frangible pellets 25, although in can consist of one piece. In many instances it is referred to as the projectile core. An outer penetrator, numbered 26, consists of spherical 27, cylindrica128 (cylinder-like or similar, and/or cuboid or barrel-shaped) ductile heavy metals (Figure 3) that are referred to here as sub-projectiles 27, 28.
In a further variant shown in Figure 4, an end penetrator 29, preferably the end of the frangible central penetrator 24, has spherical or cylindrical ductile heavy metals 30 that are similarly referred to as sub-projectiles.
In all the variants, the outer penetrator 26 preferably consists of an arc-shaped or banana-shaped form or arrangement in order to initiate the buckling effect, so that the projectile jacket 21 ruptures and the sub-projectiles 27, 28 are liberated. When the munition 10 strikes a target (not shown in greater detail herein), in addition to the projectile tip 20, the projectile jacket 21 is also destroyed with the help of the outer penetrator 26. In their turn, the sub-projectiles 27, 28 that are liberated assist the central penetrator 24 or the pellets 25 as they penetrate the target. A further improvement (of the fragment distribution) can be achieved by the use of the end penetrator 29. The sub-projectiles 30 play a supporting role in this, too.
The projectile tip 20 as well as the projectile jacket 21 can be of aluminum.
As an alternative, the projectile tip 20 can be of injection-moulded material, preferably of a plastic. It is preferred that this plastic be a highly heat resistant, fibre reinforced thermo-plastic. This also applies to the projectile jacket, which can also be of plastic; a combination of plastic and steel is recommended.
In order to override the tolerances when the projectile is being assembled, and in order to keep the sub-projectiles 27, 28 outside, in one preferred embodiment plastic is injected from the projectile tip 20. It is also possible to inject the plastic from the base end. This variant requires only a small hole that is preferably made centrally in the base area. The use of plastic permits the use of a very thin projectile jacket 21. The method that is associated with this is simple and permits cost effective fabrication.
