Definitions
- the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and its preferred implementation by using submunition according to claim 11.
- tandem charge is already ignited within the ground, at a distance from the concrete jacket, this piercing is no longer to be expected; because the effect of the tandem charge essentially only unfolds itself when the concrete body penetrates, but dissipates in the upstream soil.
- the object of the invention is to create an anti-shelter weapon which - if possible even with less ammunition expenditure - promises greater effectiveness.
- Such a forecourt is relatively easy to spot with a target search detector, as it, as a large asphalt or concrete surface, differs significantly from the clutter picked up on board the ammunition, which consists of the bushes, the lawn and the sand in the vicinity of the square in front of the shelter gate comes from. Maneuver commands for the final phase flight correction of the submunition can thus be derived from the sensor information in order to steer the latter into the center of a shelter forecourt during a steep final approach.
- the probability of hits - with regard to the wall space between a shelter gate and the connection path to the runways - is further increased if the sensor for the final phase maneuvers is designed in addition to pattern recognition, for example to widen the connection path to the turning forecourt and / or the typically roughly curved and to process radiation-like splinter protection hill structure, which surrounds such turning space, as a target criterion, without having to drive the signal processing expenditure for the detection of construction details, which are typical for the protrusion of a bunker roof over the shelter gate, but which, on the other hand, can easily be removed by ent speaking design of the earth walls lying directly above can be camouflaged.
- a gate detection can be provided, which is based on using the control sensor oriented obliquely in advance or using an approximately horizontally oriented additional sensor to acquire the limited flat area of the shelter gate between adjoining splinter protection earth walls, in order to acquire approximately to ignite horizontally oriented projectile-forming charge when it rotates with the rotating ammunition in the direction of the detected gate.
- a submunition is therefore particularly suitable in the context of the present invention, a missile which can be corrected for the end phase and which, in the case of a steep descent in the target area, preferably spirally scans it, preferably with its own movement with at least one rigidly installed sensor, in order to detect the target (here primarily the shelter forecourt) by means of temporary adjustment of control rudders to make a path correction, as described for an implementation example in EP-OS 81 421. Because the effect in the target no longer depends on the submunition accidentally hitting a shelter at a suitable point, but because the space in front of the most vulnerable shelter area, namely in front of its gate, is now targeted, is for equal effectiveness Ammunition requires much less effort, e.g.
- Carriers in the form of projectiles, missiles or airplanes are suitable for this shipment; however, the shipment is preferably carried out using a distance weapon carrier that can be released from the aircraft, as described, for example, in WEHRTECHNIK 5/84 (page 116, top left).
- the detection of the target in the form of the widened, relatively flat space (and possibly the flat gate of limited area) in the significantly different clutter-producing environment is carried out, for example, according to the criteria explained in DE-OS 34 34 326.
- the warhead of the submunition has an essentially cylindrical structure, the cylinder axis of which is pivoted by the function-typical angle of incidence of the submunition into the target area relative to the longitudinal axis of the submunition, so that it is aligned as perpendicularly as possible at the point of impact.
- projectile-forming coverings arranged along the cylinder wall lead to projectiles which are fired essentially horizontally; At least one of them strikes the shelter’s armored gate essentially vertically and pierces it with glowing splinters in order to put the aircraft parked behind it out of action.
- more than three, typically about six projectile-forming assignments on the warhead are arranged peripherally offset from one another.
- the warhead can also be equipped with a pre-existing assignment, in order to additionally break open the shelter forecourt in the vicinity of the point of impact of the submunition, that is to say make it impassable.
- a so-called multi-purpose warhead as described, for example, in its own older patent DE-C-35 25 147 for a cylinder jacket assignment that has been specifically optimized with regard to another application, as is also known from DE-B 1578089 is known, is described in more detail.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 und dessen bevorzugte Realisierung durch Verwendung von Submunition gemäß Anspruch 11.The invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and its preferred implementation by using submunition according to claim 11.
Aus DE-C-26 29 280 ist zum Bekämpfen von Zielobjekten, insbesondere Flugzeugen, die in Schutzräumen untergebracht sind, bekannt, einen Gefechtskopf einzusetzen, der eine axial nach vorn wirkende Hohlladung als Primärsprengladung und eine insbesondere nachbeschleunigbare Sekundärsprengladung vergleichsweise kleinen Kalibers aufweist, die durch den vom Hohlladungsstachel erzeugten Kanal weiter in Erdaufschüttungen auf den Außenseiten von Betonabdeckungen und in letztere hinein eindringen soll. Dabei ist eine derartige Auslegung angestrebt, daß zunächst ein Wuchtgeschoßkörper mit der Hohlladung und der Sekundärsprengladung die Erdaufschüttung mit kinetischer Energie durchdringt, um anschließend die detonierende Hohlladung mit ihrem Stachel die Betonabdeckung durchschlagen zu lassen. Bei entsprechenden Massen- und Geschwindigkeitsverhältnissen werden selbst bei relativ dicken Erdaufschüttungen und starkwandigen Betonabdeckungen noch gute Wirkungen im Zielobjekt erwartet. Der technologische Aufwand für ein solches Bekämpfungsverfahren ist allerdings außerordentlich hoch. Dann es gilt, einen komplizierten Gefechtskopf mit definiertem Zündfolgeverhalten unter geeignetem Auftreffwinkel auf den oberen Wandbereich bzw. den Dachbereich eines Flugzeug-Schutzraumes zu verbringen.From DE-C-26 29 280 it is known to combat target objects, in particular aircraft, which are housed in shelters, to use a warhead which has an axially forward-acting shaped charge as a primary explosive charge and a secondary explosive charge, which can be accelerated in particular, which has a comparatively small caliber, which by the channel generated by the shaped charge spike should penetrate further into earth fillings on the outside of concrete covers and into the latter. Such a design is aimed that first a balancing projectile body with the shaped charge and the secondary explosive charge penetrates the earth fill with kinetic energy, in order to then let the detonating shaped charge penetrate the concrete cover with its spike. With appropriate mass and speed ratios, good effects are still expected in the target object, even with relatively thick earth fillings and thick-walled concrete covers. However, the technological effort for such a control method is extremely high. Then it is a matter of spending a complicated warhead with defined firing order behavior at a suitable angle of incidence on the upper wall area or the roof area of an aircraft shelter.
Aus MILITARY TECHNOLOGY 2/85 (Seite 72 mitte links) ist eine sogenannte Anti-Shelter-Waffe zur Bekämpfung der oberirdischen gepanzerten Shelter (Unterstände) auf Fliegerhorsten und des darin stehenden Fluggerätes bekannt, wobei dort als Streumunition verbrachte Submunition mit einem Triebwerk zum Durchbringen eines Shelter-Erdwalles vorgesehen ist, die zum Aufsprengen des Shelter-Betonpanzers und zur Splitter-Bekämpfung des darunter abgestellten Fluggerätes eine voraus orientierte Bohr- und Nachschuß-Tandemladung aufweist. Sollte die Streumunition zufällig einmal nicht auf dem Erdreich landen, sondern unmittelbar auf das Shelter-Panzertor treffen, dann soll ohne vorheriges Zünden des Triebwerkes unmittelbar die Tandemladung ausgelöst werden.From MILITARY TECHNOLOGY 2/85 (page 72 middle left) a so-called anti-shelter weapon for combating the above-ground armored shelter (shelters) on air bases and the aircraft it contains is known, submunitions with a thruster for the delivery of one being used there as cluster munitions Shelter-Erdwalles is provided, which has a pre-oriented drilling and refill tandem charge for blowing open the shelter concrete armor and for splinter control of the aircraft parked underneath. If the cluster munitions do not accidentally land on the ground, but instead hit the shelter armored gate directly, the tandem charge should be triggered immediately without firing the engine.
Der technologische Aufwand für die Realisierung einer solchen Submunition ist aber überaus groß; während andererseits nur eine beschränkte Wirkung im Ziel erwartet werden kann, weil nur ein relativ kleiner Prozentsatz der ausgestreuten Submunition zufällig auf den Erdhügel über einem Shelter auftreffen wird, also tatsächlich ein geschützt abgestelltes Fluggerät bekämpft. Es kommt hinzu, daß es bei Shelter-Erdwällen von mehreren Metern Stärke kaum möglich ist, innerhalb der typischen Abmessungen von Submunition mit vertretbarem Aufwand ein Triebwerk unterzubringen, dessen Leistung für den Vortrieb durch das Erdreich hindurch bis auf die armierte Betonpanzerung ausreicht. Bei einer Zündung der Tandemladung schon innerhalb des Erdreiches, in Abstand zum Betonmantel, ist aber mit einem Durchschlagen dieser Parzerung nicht mehr zu rechnen; weil die Wirkung der Tandemladung sich im wesentlichen nur im Durchschlagen des Betonkörpers selbst entfaltet, dagegen im vorgelagerten Erdreich verpufft. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit, daß die mit Stabilisierungsrudern ausgestattete, im übrigen aber freifallende Streumunition gerade das Panzertor trifft, das gegenüber der Vorderfront des Shelters unter der Panzerung zurückverlegt ist, ist schließlich sehr gering.The technological effort for the implementation of such a submunition is extremely large; while, on the other hand, only a limited effect can be expected at the target, because only a relatively small percentage of the submunitions that have been emitted will accidentally hit the mound above a shelter, i.e. actually combat a protected aircraft. In addition, it is hardly possible with shelter earthwalls of several meters in thickness to accommodate an engine within the typical dimensions of submunition with reasonable effort, the power of which is sufficient for propulsion through the ground down to the reinforced concrete armor. If the tandem charge is already ignited within the ground, at a distance from the concrete jacket, this piercing is no longer to be expected; because the effect of the tandem charge essentially only unfolds itself when the concrete body penetrates, but dissipates in the upstream soil. The likelihood that the cluster ammunition equipped with stabilizing oars, but otherwise falling freely, will just hit the armored gate, which has been moved back under the armor opposite the front of the shelter, is very low.
In Erkenntnis dieser Gegebenheiten liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anti-Shelter-Waffe zu schaffen, die - möglichst sogar bei geringerem munitionstechnischen Aufwand - eine größere Effektivität verspricht.In recognition of these circumstances, the object of the invention is to create an anti-shelter weapon which - if possible even with less ammunition expenditure - promises greater effectiveness.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 bzw. des Anspruches 11 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1 and claim 11.
Für diese Lösung ist von der Überlegung ausgegangen, daß der verwundbarste Teil des Flugzeug-Unterstandes dessen Tor ist und auch bleiben wird, da das Tor im Alarmfall relativ schnell bewegt werden muß, also aus mechanischen und kinematischen Gründen nicht beliebig stark gepanzert werden kann; und von der weiteren Überlegung, daß ein Tor bei relativ geringem Aufwand an Zieldetektionssensorik mit sehr hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit getroffen, zerstört und sogar mit glühenden Splittermassen zur Zerstörung des dahinter abgestellten Fluggerätes durchschlagen wird, wenn die Munition in den Flugzeug-Wendeplatz vor dem Sheltertor einfällt und wenigstens eine projektilbildende Ladungen etwa in horizontaler Orientierung auf das Tor abfeuert.For this solution, it is assumed that the most vulnerable part of the aircraft shelter is and will remain its gate, since the gate must be moved relatively quickly in the event of an alarm, that is, for mechanical and kinematic reasons, it cannot be armored at will; and from the further consideration that a gate is hit with a very high probability with relatively little effort in target detection sensors, destroyed and even penetrated with glowing splinters to destroy the aircraft parked behind it, if the ammunition falls into the aircraft turning area in front of the shelter gate and at least a projectile-forming charge is fired at the gate in a horizontal orientation.
Solch ein Vorplatz ist mit einem Zielsuchdetektor relativ einfach auszumachen, da er sich als großflächige Asphalt- oder Betonfläche signifikant von dem an Bord der Munition aufgenommenen Clutter unterscheidet, der aus dem Buschwerk, dem Rasen und dem Sand in der näheren Umgebung des Platzes vor dem Sheltertor herrührt. Aus der Sensorinformation können somit Manöverkommandos zur Endphasen-Flugkorrektur der Submunition abgeleitet werden, um diese bei steilen Endanflug etwa ins Zentrum eines Shelter-Vorplatzes einzulenken. Die Trefferwahrscheinlichkeit- hinsichtlich des Wandeplatzes zwischen einem Sheltertor und dem Anschlußweg an die Rollbahnen - wird noch vergrößert, wenn der Sensor für die EndphasenManöver zusätzlich zur Mustererkennung ausgelegt wird, um beispielsweise die Aufweitung des Anschlußweges zum Wende-Vorplatz und/oder die typischerweise etwa bogen- und strahlenförmige Splitterschutz-Hügelstruktur, die solchen Wendeplatz umgibt, als Zielkriterium zu verarbeiten, ohne gleich den signalverarbeitungstechnischen Aufwand für die Detektion von Konstruktionsdetails treiben zu müssen, die typisch für den Überstand eines Bunkerdaches über das Sheltertor sind, die andererseits aber leicht durch entsprechende Ausgestaltung der unmittelbar darüber liegenden Erdwälle getarnt werden können. Auch ist der Aufwand für die Sensorsignalverarbeitung hier nicht erforderlich, der sonst getrieben werden muß, wenn eine sensorgeführte Submunition ein sich bewegendes Zielobjekt treffen soll, bei dem unterschiedliche Ansichten unterschiedliche Erkennungsmuster bedingen und seine Fluchtbewegungs-Möglichkeiten eine aufwendigere Vorhalt-Auswertung für eine Proportionalnavigation erfordern - denn das hier vorliegende Ziel in Form des Shelter-Vorplatzes ist nicht nur geometrisch und hinsichtlich seiner Clutter-Struktur relativ eindeutig bestimmt, sondern insbesondere auch stationär gegeben.Such a forecourt is relatively easy to spot with a target search detector, as it, as a large asphalt or concrete surface, differs significantly from the clutter picked up on board the ammunition, which consists of the bushes, the lawn and the sand in the vicinity of the square in front of the shelter gate comes from. Maneuver commands for the final phase flight correction of the submunition can thus be derived from the sensor information in order to steer the latter into the center of a shelter forecourt during a steep final approach. The probability of hits - with regard to the wall space between a shelter gate and the connection path to the runways - is further increased if the sensor for the final phase maneuvers is designed in addition to pattern recognition, for example to widen the connection path to the turning forecourt and / or the typically roughly curved and to process radiation-like splinter protection hill structure, which surrounds such turning space, as a target criterion, without having to drive the signal processing expenditure for the detection of construction details, which are typical for the protrusion of a bunker roof over the shelter gate, but which, on the other hand, can easily be removed by ent speaking design of the earth walls lying directly above can be camouflaged. Nor is the effort for sensor signal processing necessary, which would otherwise have to be done if a sensor-guided submunition is to hit a moving target object, in which different views require different detection patterns and its escape movement options require a more complex evaluation of the advance for a proportional navigation - Because the goal here in the form of the shelter forecourt is not only geometrically and relatively clearly defined in terms of its clutter structure, but is also given in a stationary manner.
Zusätzlich kann eine Tor-Detektion vorgesehen sein, die darauf beruht, mittels des schräg voraus orientierten Steuer-Sensors oder mittels eines etwa horizontal orientierten zusätzlichen Sensors die begrenzte ebene Fläche des Shelter-Tores zwischen beiderseits sich anschließenden Splitterschutz-Erdwällen zu akquirieren, um eine etwa horizontal orientierte projektilbildende Ladung dann zu zünden, wenn diese mit der rotierenden Munition gerade in Richtung auf das detektierte Tor einschwenkt.In addition, a gate detection can be provided, which is based on using the control sensor oriented obliquely in advance or using an approximately horizontally oriented additional sensor to acquire the limited flat area of the shelter gate between adjoining splinter protection earth walls, in order to acquire approximately to ignite horizontally oriented projectile-forming charge when it rotates with the rotating ammunition in the direction of the detected gate.
Als Submunition eignet sich im Rahmen vorliegender Erfindung somit insbesondere ein endphasenkorrigierbarer Flugkörper, der unter steilem Abstieg im Zielgebiet dieses - vorzugsweise unter Eigenbewegung mit wenigstens einem starr eingebauten Sensor - spiralförmig abtastet, um bei Erkennen des Zieles (hier also primär des Shelter-Vorplatzes) mittels vorübergehender Anstellung von Steuerrudern eine Bahnkorrektur vorzunehmen, wie für ein Realisierungsbeispiel in der EP-OS 81 421 beschrieben. Weil die Wirkung im Ziel nun nicht mehr davon abhängt, daß die Submunition zufällig einen Shelter an geeigneter Stelle trifft, sondern weil nun gezielt der Platz vor dem am leichtesten verwundbaren Shelter-Bereich, nämlich vor seinem Tor, angesteuert wird, ist für gleiche Effektivität der Munition ein wesentlich geringerer Aufwand erforderlich, also z.B. eine wesentlich geringere Submunitions-Stückzahl über das Zielgebiet zu verbringen. Für diese Verbringung eignen sich Träger in Form von Geschossen, Raketen oder Flugzeugen; vorzugsweise erfolgt die Verbringung jedoch mit einem vom Flugzeug ausklinkbaren Abstands-Waffenträger, wie er etwa in WEHRTECHNIK 5/84 (Seite 116 links oben) beschrieben ist.A submunition is therefore particularly suitable in the context of the present invention, a missile which can be corrected for the end phase and which, in the case of a steep descent in the target area, preferably spirally scans it, preferably with its own movement with at least one rigidly installed sensor, in order to detect the target (here primarily the shelter forecourt) by means of temporary adjustment of control rudders to make a path correction, as described for an implementation example in EP-OS 81 421. Because the effect in the target no longer depends on the submunition accidentally hitting a shelter at a suitable point, but because the space in front of the most vulnerable shelter area, namely in front of its gate, is now targeted, is for equal effectiveness Ammunition requires much less effort, e.g. to spend a significantly lower number of submunitions over the target area. Carriers in the form of projectiles, missiles or airplanes are suitable for this shipment; however, the shipment is preferably carried out using a distance weapon carrier that can be released from the aircraft, as described, for example, in WEHRTECHNIK 5/84 (page 116, top left).
Die Detektion des Zieles in Form des aufgeweiteten, relativ ebenen Platzes (und ggf. des ebenen Tores begrenzter Fläche) im signifikant anderen Clutter hervorrufenden Umfeld erfolgt beispielsweise gemäß den in der DE-OS 34 34 326 erläuterten Kriterien.The detection of the target in the form of the widened, relatively flat space (and possibly the flat gate of limited area) in the significantly different clutter-producing environment is carried out, for example, according to the criteria explained in DE-OS 34 34 326.
Der Gefechtskopf der Submunition weist eine im wesentlichen zylindrische Struktur auf, dessen Zylinderachse um den funktionstypischen Einfallwinkel der Submunition ins Zielgebiet gegeüber der Längsachse der Submunition verschwenkt ist, damit sie im Auftreffpunkt möglichst lotrecht ausgerichtet ist. Denn auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, daß längs der Zylinderwandung angeordnete projektilbildende Belegungen zu im wesentlichen horizontal abgefeuerten Projektilen führen; von denen wenigstens eines im wesentlichen senkrecht auf das Panzertor des Shelter auftrifft und dieses mit glühenden Splittern durchschlägt, um das dahinter abgestellte Fluggerät außer Gefecht zu setzen. Vorzugsweise sind mehr als drei, typischerweise etwa sechs projektilbildende Belegungen am Gefechtskopf peripher gegeneinander versetzt angeordnet. Denn aus der Geometrie eines typischen Shelter-Vorplatzes, der etwa im Mittelpunkt angesteuert wird (also aus der Distanz zum Tor), aus der typischen Breite eines Sheltertores und aus dem horizontalen Winkel zwischen jeweils zwei einander benachbarten Gefechtskopf-Belegungen ergibt sich dann, daß auch ohne gesonderte Tor-Detektion ein Projektil das Tor etwa mittig trifft oder zwei Projektile das Tor an seinen beiden Seitenbereichen treffen. Man kann sich aber auch auf eine, oder sehr wenige, größere projektilbildende Ladung(en) beschränken, wenn zusätzlich die erwähnte Tor-Akquisition realisiert und die Ladung gezielt beim Eindrehen in die Sichtlinie zum Tor gezündet wird. Ferner kann der Gefechtskopf auch mit einer vorauswirkenden Belegung ausgestattet sein, um zusätzlich den Shelter-Vorplatz in der Umgebung des Auftreffpunktes der Submunition aufzubrechen, also unbefahrbar zu machen. Insoweit handelt es sich dann also um einen sogenannten Mehrzweckgefechtskopf, wie er etwa in der eigenen älteren Patent DE-C-35 25 147 für eine im Hinblick auf einen anderen Einsatzzweck spezifisch optimierte Zylindermantel-Belegung, wie sie als solche auch aus der DE-B 1578089 vorbekannt ist, näher beschrieben ist.The warhead of the submunition has an essentially cylindrical structure, the cylinder axis of which is pivoted by the function-typical angle of incidence of the submunition into the target area relative to the longitudinal axis of the submunition, so that it is aligned as perpendicularly as possible at the point of impact. In this way it is ensured that projectile-forming coverings arranged along the cylinder wall lead to projectiles which are fired essentially horizontally; At least one of them strikes the shelter’s armored gate essentially vertically and pierces it with glowing splinters in order to put the aircraft parked behind it out of action. Preferably, more than three, typically about six projectile-forming assignments on the warhead are arranged peripherally offset from one another. Because from the geometry of a typical shelter forecourt, which is controlled approximately in the center (i.e. from the distance to the gate), from the typical width of a shelter gate and from the horizontal angle between two adjacent warhead assignments, it also follows that Without a separate goal detection, a projectile hits the goal approximately in the middle or two projectiles hit the goal on its two side areas. But you can also limit yourself to one, or very few, larger projectile-forming charges if the above-mentioned goal acquisition is also realized and the charge is ignited when it is turned into the line of sight to the goal. In addition, the warhead can also be equipped with a pre-existing assignment, in order to additionally break open the shelter forecourt in the vicinity of the point of impact of the submunition, that is to say make it impassable. To that extent, it is then a so-called multi-purpose warhead, as described, for example, in its own older patent DE-C-35 25 147 for a cylinder jacket assignment that has been specifically optimized with regard to another application, as is also known from DE-B 1578089 is known, is described in more detail.
