Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Geschoss mit programmierbarem Zeitzünder, der mindestens eine Datenempfangsspule und eine Energieversorgung aufweist, und mit einer Wirkmasse, die nach Ablauf einer programmierten Zündereinstellzeit ausgestossen wird.The invention relates to a projectile with programmable timer, which at least has a data reception coil and a power supply, and with an active mass, which is emitted after a programmed igniter setting time.
Aus den Druckschriften OC 2076e, OC 2041e, OC 2057d und anderen der Firma Oerlikon
Contraves, Zürich, ist ein solches Geschoss in Verbindung mit einer Anwendung bei
einem Flugkörper-Abwehrsystem bekannt geworden. Bei solchen Abwehrsystemen wird
ein anfliegendes Ziel mit einem Feuerleitgerät erfasst, verfolgt und ein Geschütz automatisch
nachgeführt. Hierbei werden Berechnungen der Geschossflugzeit durchgeführt und
beim Abschuss jedem Geschoss die aktualisierte Zündereinstellzeit induktiv über eine an
der Mündung des Geschützrohres befindliche Programmierspule an den Zeitzünder
übertragen. Dadurch wird das Ausstossen der Wirkmasse, beispielsweise in Form von
Subprojektilen, durch Zünden einer Ausstossladung in einem optimalen Zeitpunkt unmittelbar
vor dem anfliegenden Ziel gewährleistet.
Ein solches Geschoss besteht aus einem Geschosskörper, an dem vorne eine ballistische
Haube und hinten ein Zündergehäuse befestigt ist. Im Zündergehäuse ist ein programmierbarer
Zeitzünder vorgesehen, der aus einer Datenempfangsspule, einer Energieversorgung
mit Stossgenerator, einem elektronischen Zeitzündermodul, einem
Zünder, einem Detonator und einer Ausstossladung besteht. Zwischen der Haube und
dem Zündergehäuse ist im Geschosskörper ein Wirkraum vorgesehen, in welchem eine
Wirkmasse in Form von Subprojektilen verdrehungssicher angeordnet ist. Eine Halteschraube
hält die Wirkmasse in axialer Richtung fixiert und verbindet den
Geschosskörper mit der Haube.From the publications OC 2076e, OC 2041e, OC 2057d and others from the company Oerlikon Contraves, Zurich, such a projectile has become known in connection with an application in a missile defense system. In such defense systems, an approaching target is detected with a fire control device, followed and a gun is automatically tracked. In this case, calculations of the projectile flight time are carried out and when the projectile is fired, the updated detonator setting time is transmitted inductively to the time fuse via a programming coil located at the muzzle of the gun barrel. As a result, the ejection of the active mass, for example in the form of sub-projectiles, is ensured by igniting an ejection charge at an optimal time immediately before the approaching target.
Such a projectile consists of a projectile body to which a ballistic hood is attached at the front and an igniter housing at the rear. A programmable time igniter is provided in the igniter housing and consists of a data reception coil, a power supply with shock generator, an electronic time igniter module, an igniter, a detonator and an exhaust charge. Between the hood and the detonator housing, an effective space is provided in the projectile body, in which an active mass in the form of sub-projectiles is arranged to prevent rotation. A retaining screw holds the active mass in the axial direction and connects the projectile body with the hood.
Mit derartigen Geschossen wird bis zu einer Einsatzdistanz von ca. drei Kilometern eine hohe Zerstörwahrscheinlichkeit erreicht. Danach sinkt diese jedoch wegen der abnehmenden Geschwindigkeit der Geschosse sehr stark ab.With bullets of this type, a range of up to approximately three kilometers is achieved high probability of destruction achieved. After that, however, this decreases because of the decreasing The speed of the projectiles very strongly.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung ein Geschoss der vorstehend genannten Art vorzuschlagen, das für grössere Distanzen eingesetzt werden kann und eine höhere Zerstörwahrscheinlichkeit aufweist.It is therefore an object of the invention to propose a projectile of the type mentioned above, that can be used for longer distances and a higher probability of destruction having.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebene Erfindung gelöst. Hierbei ist die Wirkmasse als Geschosskern ausgeführt, der von einem Treibspiegelmantel und einem Treibspiegelheck gehalten wird. Die Datenempfangsspule und die Energieversorgung sind im Treibspiegelheck angeordnet, während die übrigen Teile des programmierbaren Zeitzünders im Geschosskern eingebaut sind. Im Treibspiegelmantel und im Treibspiegelheck sind Sollbruchstellen vorgesehen, so dass nach Abschuss des Geschosses der Treibspiegelmantel und das Treibspiegelheck mit der Datenempfangsspule und der Energieversorgung abgetrennt werden und nur der Geschosskern mit den übrigen Teilen des programmierbaren Zeitzünders allein weiterfliegt.This object is achieved by the invention specified in claim 1. in this connection the active mass is designed as a projectile core, that of a sabot jacket and a sabot rear is held. The data receiving coil and the power supply are arranged in the sabot tail while the remaining parts of the programmable Timers are built into the core of the projectile. In the sabot coat and in The sabot tail is provided with predetermined breaking points, so that after the Storey the sabot jacket and the sabot tail with the data receiving coil and the power supply are separated and only the floor core with the remaining parts of the programmable timer continue to fly alone.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile liegen darin, dass mit diesem Geschoss das eingangs beschriebene Abwehrsystem auch für grössere Distanzen eingesetzt werden kann, wodurch der Wirkungsradius der Geschütze erheblich vergrössert und eine Abwehr von Flugzeugen und Helikoptern bis auf ca. fünf Kilometer ermöglicht wird. Insbesondere werden kürzere Flugzeiten und eine höhere Zerstörwahrscheinlichkeit gegen gepanzerte Ziele erreicht. Wegen der geringeren Anzahl Subprojektile der vorgeschlagenen Ausführungsvariante ist die Treffwahrscheinlichkeit zwar kleiner, was jedoch durch die wesentlich kürzere Flugzeit mehr als wettgemacht wird.The advantages achieved with the invention are that with this projectile it starts Defense system described can also be used for larger distances can, which significantly increases the range of action of the guns and a defense of planes and helicopters up to about five kilometers. In particular shorter flight times and a higher probability of destruction against armored Goals achieved. Because of the smaller number of subprojectiles of the proposed variant the chance of hitting is smaller, but this is due to the essential shorter flight time is more than made up for.
