DE102005036574A1 - Projectile with a conical structure - Google Patents

Abstract

It is proposed not to adapt the fire control computer to a new ammunition (1) as before, but to adapt an existing projectile (1) to it. The adaptation takes place in that the projectile (1) is provided with a different propellant charge powder, but at least the diameter of the cone angle is increased while the length (I) of the tail unit (2.1) remains the same.

Description

The The invention relates to a projectile, in particular a training projectile, which fired from a weapons system with Feuerleitrechner can be.

Such a training ammunition is for example from the DE 100 14 513 A1 known. A provided with a Schlitzkegelleitwerk training ammunition is among others the US 5,498,160 removable. A Lochkegelleitwerk describes the DE 90 12 031 U1 ,

generally known Today's weapons systems have a fire control computer. This is matched to each type of weapon and ammunition. For new types of ammunition Therefore, the fire control computer has to be adapted elaborately become. For practice munitions In addition, the main feature of the economy applies. The adaptation is usually stationary, so that the fire control computers including vehicles or the like too must be brought to a given location and thus also for practice purposes not available are.

Here The invention sees the task of specifying a way, as the Adaptation of an existing training ammunition with a bowling gear and one with this previously uncoordinated, however existing Feuerleitrechner also from the point of view the economy can be realized.

Is solved the object by the features of claim 1.

Of the Invention is based on the basic idea, not as before the Feuerleitrachner to change, but the existing practice ammunition to adapt to this. The complex interplay between the temperature behavior of the ammunition from -15 ° C to 35 ° C and the trajectory curve taken into account become.

The Adaptation happens because the practice ammo with another Propellant charge powder provided at least but the diameter of the cone angle with the same length of the tail increases becomes. It has surprisingly been found in practice that thus a complex adaptation to the temperature and trajectory behavior is achieved and only a trajectory error (at -15 ° C to + 35 ° C) is less than 0.1 is possible.

When new propellant powder will use an I-propellant powder instead a simple propellant powder used.

Based an embodiment with drawing, the invention will be explained in more detail.

It shows

1 a projectile according to the prior art,

1a a tail unit.

1 shows a projectile 1 , here a training ammunition, according to the prior art, consisting of a conical structure 2 with slits 3 as well as further details which are not to be considered in detail for the explanation.

The existing tail unit 2 , which has, for example, a cone angle of about 78 mm, by a, a larger cone angle, for example, 88 to 94 mm, owning tail 2.1 replaced ( 1a ). This is done for example by screwing on the cylindrical part 4 the ammunition 1 ,

Claims (4)

Projectile ( 1 ) with a conical structure ( 2 ), which can be fired by a weapon system with Feuerleitrechner, characterized in that instead of an adaptation of the Feuerleitrechners to a new type of ammunition, a change of the existing projectile ( 1 ), in such a way that this is a new, in the radius changed in the tail length (l) constant conical structure ( 2.1 ) is placed. Projectile ( 1 ) according to claim 1, characterized in that the projectile ( 1 ) is a training ammunition. Projectile according to Claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the radius of the changed conical structure ( 2.1 ) is larger than the original tail ( 2 ). Projectile according to one of claims 1 to 3, characterized that an I-propellant charge powder is included.
