Definitions

  • the invention relates to a projectile with low recoil and high stopping power. It applies to any caliber of handgun or infantry.
  • the Ec is therefore directly proportional to the mass and to the square of the remaining velocity of the projectile.
  • the recoil pulse is therefore directly proportional to the mass and the initial speed of the projectile.
  • the projectile according to the invention aims to minimize this contradiction.
  • the invention aims to provide a projectile with a high stopping power, the construction of which is such that no deformation or disintegration of the projectile takes place in a soft target.
  • the subject of the invention is a low-mass projectile, making it possible to obtain a weak reversing pulse by increasing the stopping power at all distances of use of the ammunition, by a rapid abandonment of its kinetic energy in the target, without deformation or disintegration.
  • the projectile according to the invention making it possible to achieve the aforementioned advantages a.a. is characterized by its geometry and in particular the ratio l / d (length on caliber), which will advantageously be greater than 3.
  • a projectile according to the invention is characterized in that the proportions of the lengths of the constituent parts of the projectile are: for the warhead, between 1.5 and 3 times the size of the size, for the cylindrical part between 0.7 and 2 times the size of the size and for the rear conical part between 9 and 1 times the size of the size, the l / d ratio (length over the size of the caliber) being located between 3 and 6 and the center of gravity of the projectile being located in said cylindrical part of the projectile.
  • the casing 2 is hollow and made of a hard material, for example an alloy of copper, steel or the like.
  • the core 3 could consist of two or more pieces mounted one in the extension of the other and possibly joined together in any way.
