Abstract

Ein mittels eines Trägers (13) verbringbarer Gefechtskopf (18) soll dafür ausgelegt werden, eine wirksamere Bekämpfung von mittelhart bis hart gepanzerten Zielobjekten (11) unter leichtem natürlichem oder künstlichem Schutz (12) zu erbringen, als der herkömmliche Einsatz von mittels eines Geschosses oder einer Rakete verbrachten Hohlladungs-Bomblets. Dafür werden einteilige Gefechtsköpfe (18′) oder in Verteileinheiten (19) untergebrachte Submunitionen (20) eingesetzt, deren Wandungen (42) projektilbildende Belegungen (43) mit Brandmassen-Hinterfütterung (44) aufweisen und die konstruktiv oder detonatorisch für einen gegenüber der Wandungs-Längsachse an­ steigenden Splitterfächer (46) ausgelegt sind. Die Zündung erfolgt mittels eines herausklappbaren oder teleskopierbaren, abwärtsorien­ tierten Stößels (32), der noch nicht beim Durchschlagen des Schutzes (12) auslöst, sondern erst beim harten Aufschlag im oder neben dem Zielobjekt (11). Sollte sich ein aerodynamisches Bremsmittel (29) eines einteiligen Gefechtskopfes (18′) bzw. einer Submunition (20) im Schutz (12) verfangen, erfolgt eine Umorientierung des Splitter­ fächers (46) nach unten. A warhead (18) which can be moved by means of a carrier (13) should be designed to fight more effectively medium-hard to hard-armored targets (11) under light natural or to provide artificial protection (12) than the conventional one Use of spent by means of a projectile or a missile Shaped charge bomblets. One-piece warheads (18 ′) or submunitions (20) accommodated in distribution units (19) used, the walls (42) projectile-forming coverings (43) with fire mass backing (44) and the constructive or detonator for one with respect to the longitudinal wall axis rising splinter compartments (46) are designed. The ignition takes place by means of a fold-out or telescopic, downward ore tated plunger (32), which is not yet when the protection breaks through (12) triggers, but only with a hard impact in or next to the Target object (11). If an aerodynamic brake fluid (29) a one-piece warhead (18 ') or a submunition (20) caught in the protection (12), the splitter is reoriented fan (46) down.
