Definitions

  • the invention relates to a combination warhead according to claim 1.
  • Warheads In use as active systems for guided missiles, submunitions or other Warheads are in the majority special, on the respective Use case optimized warheads. These are, for example, in anti-tank defense, at which has a high penetration rate compared to armored steel (possibly with additional reactive armor) is required, the well-known shaped charge systems (short: HL systems).
  • Splinter charges for use. These are usually pressure / splinter charges in the destination control.
  • semi-hard targets e.g. Radar positions, trucks, etc.
  • HL or P charge systems used as so-called multi-purpose warheads.
  • the fight against hard armor is made by the hollow or projectile-forming Ensures cargo and the simultaneous combat of surrounding semi-hard targets by completed the additional splinter coat applied. Both mechanisms of action are considered this kind of multi-purpose systems ignited together and simultaneously. The effect occurs at the same time.
  • the use of only one of the two types of action is not provided.
  • the hard concrete targets like bunkers, Airplane shelters, runways etc. as well as from other destinations where the main effect of the Explosive charge should only be achieved after penetrating a first hard layer, such as. in ships, attack helicopters or in combating all of the above Goals "in cover", i.e. behind walls or inside buildings, they are suitable Penetrator warheads. These are filled with explosives and high Penetration excellent metal body that only after entering or Penetrate the first hard layer and then ignite its pressure or Develop a splintering effect.
  • the combination active system is universally designed for all required operating modes at the same time.
  • the peculiarity in the Application is due to the different use of the different Ignition system components accomplished.
  • the ignition is made by a Distance detonators at the optimal distance, in the second case through an intelligent penetrator ignition system.
  • FIG. 1 The basic structure of the combination warhead according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1 shown.
  • a conventional penetrator 1 with an optimized tip and optimized lengths Diameter ratio (L / D) is not completely filled with explosive 2, but contains at its tip an additional cavity 3, which is suitable for the formation of a To ensure shaped charge spikes.
  • This room 3 is against the one behind it Explosives 2 separated with a shaped charge lining 4.
  • the shockproof version this lining and its support on the penetrator 5 and the Explosives containment are designed to match the warhead.
  • the securing device 6 contains the ignition stage for the explosive charge 2 and as the first pyrotechnic elements of the ignition chain the detonator and, if applicable, transformer or Amplifier charges.
  • the combination warhead is triggered as follows:
  • the appropriate Distance ignited by the distance fuse of the warhead. It forms a shaped charge spike, which still has to penetrate the tip of the penetrator. Then can he can act unhindered on the target and his high penetration in armored steel deliver.
  • FIGS. 2 to 13 Possible ones in FIGS. 2 to 13 are possible Refinements of this concept are shown that facilitate implementation or depending on Target requirement enable the optimization of shaped charge or penetrator performance. she are to be seen as exemplary, as well as other combinations of the different constructive measures, as the ones just shown in the drawing, a sensible one Warhead design result.
  • Fig. 4 shows another measure to improve the HL performance.
  • the warhead is in different compartments 9 and 10 divided, depending on the operating mode be ignited.
  • Fig.5 is exemplified that the shaped charge lining 4 on the special Use in combination warhead compared to a pure, non-penetrating one Hollow charge is optimized with regard to position, material, wall thickness, opening angle etc. she also takes into account the special L / D situation in the combination warhead as well as the greater insulation of the load through the penetrator casing 5.
  • FIG. 6 is an example the lining 11 of an EFP load is shown.
  • Fig. 7 shows a solution to this Problems appropriate formation of the pentrator tip, which has an inner cavity 12 in the Has peak.
  • Fig. 10 represents a way to increase the stability of the penetrator by the Cavity 3 in front of the shaped charge lining with an incompressible medium 15 is filled out.
  • this material gives the penetrator increased strength, in the "hollow charge” mode it can be lowered or with the Removing the penetrator tip can be removed.
  • This medium can, if appropriate Design may also a secondary effect such as Fire or similar cause.
  • a pretreated penetrator sleeve 16 can be used to increase the splintering effect be pre-embossed or otherwise pretreated such that the natural splinters of the Have predefined geometries. This is shown in Fig. 11. Here is one too Adjustment of the optimum with regard to penetrator performance (smooth casing) or splinter performance (embossed sleeve) possible.
  • Fig. 12 shows that in the warhead according to the invention also internal, preformed Splitter 17 can be used to optimize the splitting effect.
  • the conscious Broken rows of fragments are intended to symbolize that "patterns" between Preformed and natural shell splinters used to optimize the effect on the target can be.
  • FIG. 13 an external splinter jacket 18 is shown, which the splinter effect in the Distance ignition increased, but also before the charge detonated by a separating agent 19 can be separated if this is necessary to avoid collateral damage should.
