Definitions
- the invention relates to a multi-purpose warhead according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a multi-purpose warhead for parallel combat of people and mobile or immobile armored targets is known from DE-A-2 205 074.
- this multipurpose warhead only one explosive charge within an explosive shell is assigned a forward-looking spike-forming shaped charge lining, several projectile-forming assignments arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the explosive charge and, for example, spherical fragments as splinter assignment on the remaining free jacket sections of the explosive charge.
- the detonation can already have negative effects on the penetration rate and the accuracy, for example in the case of the spike-forming shaped charge lining, in that no detonation wave guidance is provided for the formation of the spike.
- the accuracy of the projectile-forming assignment can be negatively influenced, because the detonation waves do not impinge on the axis of the assignment rotationally symmetrically due to the curvature of the explosive shell.
- the arrangement of only one explosive charge within the explosive charge envelope does not allow the energy to be optimally designed and metered in order to achieve different occupancy-specific detonation speeds.
- the invention has for its object to increase the accuracy and penetration and thus the effectiveness of the multi-purpose warhead mentioned in the preamble of claim 1 in the fight against hard, semi-hard and soft targets.
- the multipurpose warhead according to the invention is particularly advantageous in that, in a simple construction, outside parts of the same diameter and each having a different type of occupation can be arranged one behind the other in a tube-like multipurpose warhead shell, the detonation energies of the respective explosive charges being able to be adapted and metered to the necessary detonation speeds of the different types of occupation.
- At least three different active parts are arranged within the multi-purpose warhead shell for the simultaneous fight against hard, semi-hard and soft targets, a second active part designed as a projectile-forming occupancy being arranged symmetrically between a first active part designed as a spike-forming lining and a pre-shaped splinter-containing third active part the axis has conical recesses opening outwards on both sides, an inert insert being present within the recess directed towards the 1st active part and an ignition device being arranged within the recess directed towards the 3rd active part.
- the arrangement of the inert system in the conical recess of the second active body prevents hot steam or particles of the subsequently arranged active parts from striking the central area of the explosive face of the shaped charge. Due to its central position and its smaller outside diameter compared to the diameter of the shaped charge, the inert insert allows an annular firing and detonation wave guidance of the shaped charge, whereby the first active part carrying the shaped charge can be made considerably shorter in length due to the omission of the inert insert.
- the detonator Due to the expedient arrangement of the detonator in a second conical recess of the second active part corresponding to the first conical recess and by the arrangement of a detonator between the facing tips of the conical recesses, only a single detonator is also advantageously required for the adjacent first and third active part .
- the opposite conical recesses are arranged rotationally symmetrically to the axis of the projectile-forming assignment, as a result of which the detonation waves can hit the assignment almost perpendicularly, and large assignments can also be generated as projectiles with high penetration power in exactly predetermined directions.
- Each fourth and next but one active part designed as a projectile-forming charge advantageously contains a metal insert in a keg-shaped recess instead of the inert insert, which on the one hand can absorb the acceleration forces which can act on the explosive of the projectile-forming charge and on the other hand can initiate the adjacent active unit.
- the acceleration forces it is also possible to use the cavity within the Fill in the metal insert with a suitable fiber.
- FIG. 1 illustrates the arrangement of a multi-purpose warhead 23 consisting of the active parts 1, 2 and 3 within a missile 19 which forms the multi-purpose warhead shell 7.
- the active parts 1, 2 and 3 or 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (FIG. 3) are arranged between a ballistic hood 24 and a wing tail 25 arranged at the rear.
- the arrangement of the active parts within a round of ammunition that can be fired from tubular weapons is also possible if the active parts 1, 2, 3 are equipped on the rear side with a base piece (not shown) instead of the wing guide and on the front side with a sensor (also not shown).
- Fig. 2 shows the structure of a multi-purpose warhead 23 consisting of three different active parts 1, 2, 3 within the tube-like multi-purpose warhead shell 7 of the same diameter.
- each active part 1, 2, 3 has its individual structure, for example with a respective explosive charge 6 specific to the occupancy type, each can be different in composition and in the snap action which retains that a common ignitable multi-purpose warhead 23 with different occupation modes 8, 9, 22 provided active parts 1, 2, 3 form with high effectiveness ke t for the simultaneous combating of hard, semi-hard i and soft Aims.
- the tip of the multi-purpose warhead 23 forms the active part 1 with a shaped charge 6.1 and a conical shaped charge lining 8 arranged rotationally symmetrically with respect to the axis 12.
- the assignments 22 can be made differently in the wall thickness, in the material design, in the number and in the shape; in all cases, however, the axis 26 of the respective assignment 22 is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 12.
- the explosive charge 6.2 contains conical recesses 10, 11 opening symmetrically on both sides on the axis 12, an inert insert 13 being present within the recess 10 executed for the active part 1 and an ignition device 14 being arranged within the recess 11 executed for the active part 3.
- the maximum diameter di of the inert insert 13 arranged in the active part 2 is matched to the outer diameter d 2 of the active part 1 in such a way that an annular firing of the spike-forming lining 8 is possible.
- the inert insert 13 prevents at the same time that no hot steam or particles can impinge on the central area of the explosive face of the shaped charge 6.1.
- an ignition device 14 which can be unlocked as a function of different physical quantities, by means of which, in the unlocked position, a detonator 17 arranged between the tips 15 and 16 of the conical recesses 10, 11 facing each other in the middle and the explosive charge 8.2 can ignite rotationally symmetrically to the axis 12.
- a detonator 17 arranged between the tips 15 and 16 of the conical recesses 10, 11 facing each other in the middle and the explosive charge 8.2 can ignite rotationally symmetrically to the axis 12.
- the adjacent explosive charges 6.1 and 6.3 are also ignited at the same time.
- the recess 10 also allows the inert insert 13 to be accommodated, as a result of which the active part 1 can be simplified and significantly shortened with high target effectiveness, but without having to carry the inert insert 13 itself .
- the cylinder-like active parts 1, 2 allow the side 18 of the active part 2 to be arranged in line with a preformed splitter 9 or a further cylindrical active part 3 or 4 having a splinter covering 20 (FIG. 3).
- additional active parts 5, 3 or 4 can be added to the third active part according to FIG. 3.
- the projectile-forming active part 5, like active part 2 requires initiation centrally in the middle. For this reason, each active part 5 is also equipped with a separate igniter device 14.
- the active parts 3, 4, on the other hand, which are coated with balls or preformed splitters, do not require a separate igniter, but can be fired in a meaningful manner from the other active parts.
- the cavity 10 of the active part 5 is covered with a metal insert 21, this can initiate the adjacent active parts 3 or 4 like a hollow charge.
- the active part 5 is arranged as the fourth or as every next but one active part.
- the metal insert 21 is at the same time able to absorb the acceleration forces the explosives of the active part 5 act to record.
- another suitable material can also be used as insulation.
- the cavity 10 of the active part 5 can also be filled with a suitable fiber 27.
- the acceleration forces to be absorbed by the cavity 11 of the active parts 2, 5 are sensibly absorbed by a shell of the ignition device 14 corresponding to the shape of the cavity 11.
