Definitions

  • the invention relates to bullets or warheads for the control of targets, in particular of armored targets, with an internal arrangement for the dynamic formation of expansion zones and for achieving large lateral effects.
  • the aim is also to achieve the greatest possible areal effect (lateral effect) for increasing the efficiency. This is especially true for projectiles against flying targets, e.g. Fixed-wing aircraft, unarmored helicopters or missiles are necessary, which from an end-ballistic point of view are among the lighter target classes.
  • flying targets e.g. Fixed-wing aircraft, unarmored helicopters or missiles are necessary, which from an end-ballistic point of view are among the lighter target classes.
  • EP 0 343 389 A1 describes the projectile core of a sabot projectile, which consists of a relatively brittle projectile core middle part into which a relatively ductile projectile core mandrel is inserted, which at its rear end in the projectile core rear part and at its front end in one Bullet core tip is anchored.
  • a frangible tungsten is preferably proposed, while the bullet core mandrel is made of a ductile tungsten, hard metal or other end ballistisch effective material.
  • the relatively brittle bullet core middle part already breaks down when penetrating the first target plate of a multilayer armor, while the ductile bullet core does not fragment during fürdringvorgang, but rather successively penetrates the following target plates and thereby degrades continuously in its length or mass.
  • the relatively thin and therefore low-mass projectile part is just not suitable for achieving a greater depth effect or for penetrating deeper targets with continuous lateral action.
  • the densities of brittle bullet core midsection and ductile bullet core are nearly equal. A high lateral effect of the splinters in connection with a penetration of multi-layer target plates is thus not given.
  • WO 92/15836 A1 discloses a spin-stabilized, armor-piercing, fragment-producing bullet formed from a bullet casing with a high-density material and a front header of the same material, in which the collapse of the bullet casing is carried out mechanically with the aid of a prestressed heavy material , which is located in a blind hole in the rear part of the projectile casing and a Vorkerbung the shell structure.
  • compressed Filler tungsten powder is proposed. This solution is just as effective with relatively thin targets as it is with low targets. Also, an endballistisch effective compression due to the powdery filler can not be achieved constructively.
  • EP 0 238 818 A1 describes a spin-stabilized sabot projectile which consists of a hollow splitter shell closed at the back and the front and a projectile tip attached thereto.
  • an inert powder having a density of at least 10 g / cm 3 is proposed.
  • the fragment jacket has predetermined breaking points which determine the size of the individual fragments.
  • the fragmentation jacket is to fragment after penetration of the projectile and disintegrate into individual effective fragments.
  • the powdered tungsten filling is expelled after penetration due to the rotation of the projectile.
  • a high lateral and at the same time depth-effective performance can not be achieved with such a concept, since the invention is primarily based on the centrifugal forces of a spiral projectile and the tungsten powder, not least because of the natural cavities, will not sufficiently disassemble the surrounding thick jacket in spite of pre-fragmentation in the radial direction.
  • the powder filling is intended as a replacement for a blasting and fire charge, the high density is to achieve direct end ballistic effects.
  • JP 08061898 A Another decomposition principle for achieving a lateral effect is proposed in the publication (JP 08061898 A), in which a metal cylinder in a reactive metal is arranged, which reacts thermally chemically with air and water when the armor piercing ammunition collides with an object.
  • JP 08061898 A a metal cylinder in a reactive metal is arranged, which reacts thermally chemically with air and water when the armor piercing ammunition collides with an object.
  • a "quasi" explosive-fire effect caused by the special metal reaction in order to achieve a strong radial destructive power.
  • a non-armor-piercing method to achieve an increased lateral effect with a projectile after the impact or penetration of a target, is known from DE 28 39 372 A1, in which a bullet for hunting purposes is proposed, which consists of a solid projectile shell, which is provided with a front-to-back central blind hole in which a filling is preferably made of lead with cavities.
  • the heavier material is located inside the surrounding sheath and, as it penetrates the soft target, causes the front bullet to mushroom.
  • the projectile may intentionally give up its energy to the game body and achieve a broader effect.
  • a lateral decomposition of the projectile body or a lateral fragmentation effect is not intended, even undesirable.
  • a similar effect is achieved with the forbidden DUM-DUM principle against persons.
  • DE 40 07 196 A1 describes a hyperspeed balancing projectile with a bearing outer jacket, which encloses a mass body of heavy bulk material, preferably tungsten and depleted uranium powder.
  • the shell alone serves to stabilize the liner made of the heavy metal powder during launch acceleration and flight phase.
  • the impacting at very high speed in the target projectile achieves its high depth performance therefore, because in the hyper-speed range, the material strength of the penetrator is not more or only insignificantly affects the breakdown power. At lower speeds, therefore, the depth performance is greatly reduced. The lateral effect is negligible.
  • These projectiles are known as so-called segmented penetrators.
  • a subcaliber mass projectile with a large length / diameter ratio and hybrid structure is disclosed in EP 0 111 712 A1, which consists essentially of a main intermediate body and a tip body.
  • the intermediate body made of a brittle sintered material of high density, for example tungsten or depleted uranium, is connected to the main body in a flat butt joint area and to the tip body in a likewise flat butt joint area, wherein both the main body and the tip body are made from a tough sintered material Density, for example, the same above-mentioned metallic materials are formed.
  • the particles forming from the brittle material of the intermediate body are intended to widen the firing channel and cause a strong blowing effect behind the first target plate.
  • Such free buffer layers are basically both pressure and performance reducing.
  • the fragmentation effect remains due to the construction and low density differences between the brittle and tough sintered materials largely limited locally and laterally, since the brittle intermediate body is compressed during the impact in the axial direction of the tip and main body and is driven purely axially through the firing channel together with these two ballistically highly effective masses.
  • DE 32 40 310 A1 describes an armor-piercing fire projectile which, according to the invention, has a cylindrical body formed as a solid body with an inner cavity arranged in its front region, the solid sidewalls comprising the cavity being designed such that they are at the beginning of the cavity Penetration of the armor through the projectile essentially maintain their original shape to create a completely closed cavity when impacting on the tank and to cause an adiabatic compression within the cavity that the incendiary charge is ignited in the cavity.
  • the cylindrical metal body is provided in the front region with a conventional aluminum (ballistic hood), which extends into the opening of the metal body and thus closes the cavity. This massive aluminum tip is destroyed when the bullet strikes the target and has no further impact on the penetration of the bullet.
  • the projectile described in EP 0051 375 B1 is a mechanically disintegrating penetrator, a so-called FAPDS projectile (Frangible Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot), ie a subcaliber sabot projectile.
  • FAPDS projectile Frrangible Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot
  • This bullet material with high density consists inter alia of a tungsten heavy metal infiltrated with copper, whereby the necessary Brittleness of the bullet material is effected.
  • the production of this special projectile material is very complicated and complicated, since the projectile must satisfy both the launching loads in the weapon and the decomposition in the target.
  • the projectile may additionally have a ballistic "wind screen" consisting of a pyrophoric metal such as zircon, titanium or depleted uranium.
  • a ballistic "wind screen” consisting of a pyrophoric metal such as zircon, titanium or depleted uranium.
  • US 4,649,829 describes a projectile in which the tip and the inner part of plastic, injected as a part of the outer shell, solely for the connection of tubular penetrator, the aluminum discs arranged above and the rear part serve to feed the bullet in the weapon , the firing (passage gun barrel) and the subsequent free flight to the target to hold the action parts (tubular penetrator and discs) in their position.
  • the tubular penetrator is to be enabled by the interaction with the aluminum discs in a position to penetrate into a very oblique armor. Basically, it is therefore a plastic-coated fragmentation projectile, in which the aluminum discs should provide the central end-ballistic effect.
  • These outer parts are said to protect the inner tube from loading when obliquely striking the target.
  • the document DE 52 364 C describes a bullet with a pronounced tip made of a heavy metal. This headboard is intended to expand over a wedge effect and the following projectile casing on its mechanical delay. This principle is certainly not new and part of a variety of inventions. So is also expressly from a bullet made of soft metal with a cylindrical carbide coat the speech. Consequently, it is also explained in detail how the mechanical expansion effect of the plastically deforming tip can be avoided constructively on the transition to the rear projectile part if desired.
  • US 2,661,694 discloses a projectile with individual sub-penetrators, which receive a lateral component when hitting the target due to their special arrangement and storage solely by mechanical aids. It is thus a Solution in which a lateral movement of bullets is triggered by constructive measures due to the delay of mechanical components when the bullet hits the target.
  • the lateral movement can only be done in light target structures, which do not offer much resistance, ie armored targets (armored steel or similar materials) can not be fought with such a projectile.
  • FR 2,629,581 describes an arrow or spin stabilized bullet to combat armored targets with a core assembly consisting of a front core, which is preferably designed as armor piercing penetrator with high mass and strength and a concentric, multi-part rearwardly disposed core containing a plurality of radially separable, secondary projecting parts in concentric arrangement.
  • a front core which is preferably designed as armor piercing penetrator with high mass and strength and a concentric, multi-part rearwardly disposed core containing a plurality of radially separable, secondary projecting parts in concentric arrangement.
  • US 4,437,409 discloses a spin stabilized sabot projectile for controlling low-flying aircraft, manned and unmanned missiles, ground attack aircraft, rockets and armored personnel carriers, and lightly armored vehicles.
  • This sabot projectile has a projectile body with an axial channel, which is closed at the front by a ballistic hood. The axial channel is filled with a fire charge, which continuously loses ground when penetrating the bullet in the target together with the projectile body.
  • this fire charge is not assigned any support in the lateral decomposition of the projectile body. Rather, the decomposition or fragmentation of the projectile body is solely due to the resistance in the target, i. controlled by the plates to be penetrated by the projectile.
  • the lateral effect is thus achieved solely by the crumbling in the channel casing material in connection with the projectile twist.
  • the actual task of the set of fire in the channel of the projectile is the self-decomposition of the projectile with the help of the set of light and the law of delay.
  • DE 4007196 describes a hyperspeed balancing projectile with a bearing outer jacket, which encloses a mass body of heavy bulk material, preferably tungsten powder or DU powder.
  • the internal mass body may be formed in one piece or consist of a plurality of successive, separated by separating layers of bodies.
  • U.S. Patent 3,302,570 describes a bullet type designed primarily for the purpose of breaking up armor steel protective structures while minimizing the required projectile energy. This goal is achieved by a massive penetrator with a relatively small diameter and a relatively large length of heavy metal as the core of the projectile structure. As an additional effect, the damage in or behind the target is to be increased by a multi-part, specific bullet structure. The effect of two incendiary devices and the bullet-specific disruption processes are named as damage-causing factors in addition to the actual target strike.

  • F becomes equal to the rate term, that is, the dynamic strengths of the materials involved are critical.

  • the density of the AWM can be varied, since then the mechanical properties no longer play a major role.

  • the AWM serves here additionally as a carrier for the sub-projectiles (bars) 20.
  • Correspondingly thin webs 20 can serve for the pure fixing of the central penetrator 6 .
  • FIG. 24 either rod-shaped or successively connected, end ballistically effective bodies 21 are introduced into the AWM. These are, as arranged outside, radially mitbeuggt. In this way, prefabricated sub-penetrators or other active parts can be accelerated laterally simultaneously with the enclosing body.
  • FIG. 24A corresponds to FIG. 24 without a central penetrator.
  • FIG. 25 shows the case that indentations 22 or embrittlement are provided on the inside of the surrounding end ballistically active body 2 . These provide or assist a desired decomposition of the body 2 .
  • FIG. 26 shows, by way of example, a projectile without a central penetrator, wherein, in contrast to FIG. 25, notches 23 or other measures promoting disassembly are located on the outside of the body 2 .
  • FIG. 28 shows the corresponding case without a central penetrator with a larger number of identical or different bodies 25.
  • FIG. 29 shows another case of particular interest for the configuration of such projectiles.
  • four long penetrators 26 are introduced into the AWM in the axis region.
  • a penetrator 27 provided with a square cross-section is introduced as an example of the fact that it allows the AWM to embed any penetrator forms and also penetrator materials (these only have to survive the launch acceleration).
  • the central, in this case cylindrical, penetrator 28 is provided with a cavity 29 in FIG. 30A.
  • a cavity 29 in FIG. 30A.
  • the mass of the penetrator can be reduced.
  • Such a cavity can also be filled with foam or used to hold substances with special properties (pyrophoric or explosive).
  • the positioning of bodies in the AWM opens up the possibility of influencing the type and extent of the lateral decomposition or acceleration.
  • FIGS. 31 to 34 are intended to show a few examples of the multitude of possible projectile conceptions or effective zones of projectiles with the principle proposed here.
  • FIG. 31 shows the case that the AWM is located in a stepped arrangement 30.
  • Such a design reacts very "sensitively" when hitting a thin structure in the front part, whereas the rear projectile parts form different sub-projectiles or splinters due to the geometric design and, for example, the use of different expansion media 1b, 1c and 1d .
  • FIG. 32 shows as a comparative example, which is not the subject of the invention, a penetrator 31 for increasing the effect in the target interior after a penetration path corresponding to the front solid projectile part.
  • the AWM 1e is located in the rear area of the projectile.
  • Such a projectile 31 is able to combine high breakdown power with large craters and corresponding lateral effects in the target interior or on the subsequent structures.
  • FIG. 33 shows, as a further example, a projectile 32 with three separate dynamic zones and the AWMs 1f, 1g and 1h.
  • a projectile 32 constructed in this way is, for example, able to develop an increased lateral effect after a partial disassembly with thin outer structures only after the penetration of a thicker, further plate. This is followed by a massive area for achieving a further, larger penetration distance and then the zone with the AWM 1h to increase the residual effect (Fig.32).
  • FIG. 34 shows the cross section through a projectile 33, which as an example in the radial direction contains two of the active combinations with AWM 1 or 1i presented here between the casings 2 and 2a or the casing 2a and the central penetrator 6 .
  • AWM 1 or 1i presented here between the casings 2 and 2a or the casing 2a and the central penetrator 6 .
  • such combinations can also be arranged several times on the longitudinal axis of a projectile or combined with the examples described above.
  • FIGS. 35A to 35D show four examples, which apply mutatis mutandis to projectiles with an additional central penetrator.
  • the AWM damming outer shell 34 is a ring of longitudinal structures. These are either mechanically fixed to each other, for example, by thin sleeves or glued or soldered. There is also the possibility by appropriate treatment, for example by inductive hardening or laser embrittlement, to treat the shell in such a way that it is decomposed under dynamic load into a predetermined body.
  • FIG. 35B shows the case where a shell damming the AWM, corresponding to the shell 2 of FIG. 22, is surrounded by an outer shell 34 according to FIG.
  • any bodies 37 are embedded in the shell 36 .
  • a ring of sub-penetrators or splinters 34 according to FIG. 35B is located on the inside of the outer shell 35.
  • projectile tip Another essential element for the efficiency of a projectile is the projectile tip.
  • some basic examples hinder tip, massive tip and special tip shapes
  • the design of the tips basically takes into account the full effectiveness of the principle described here. So not negatively affected or complemented this in a meaningful way.
  • FIG. 36 shows an example of hollow tips 38. These serve primarily as external ballistic hoods and are immediately destroyed on impact even on light structures so that the lateral acceleration process can be initiated immediately by the impact impact as described.
  • a tip 39 according to FIG. 36 is filled with an AWM 40 .
  • Figure 38 shows a massive tip 41. This may be one or more parts and is appropriate, for example, when massive Vorpanzerept should be penetrated without an immediate projectile decomposition.
  • Figs. 39A and 39B serve as examples of special tip shapes, which are for the purpose of illustration only but are not subject of the invention.
  • the AWM 42 extends into the tip 43.
  • the tip 44 contains an AWM 45 in some areas .
  • the respective tip and the front part can also accelerate the triggering of a high lateral effect (due to a particularly rapid transmission of the shock load and thus rapid pressure build-up) as well as being delayed. This is of interest, for example, if the lateral splinter effect is to occur at a specific target depth or in a specific target area.
  • a front or side (outer) "protective device” it is also possible, by means of a front or side (outer) "protective device" to spend structures with the described lateral effect at the desired location in a target structure, so that this effect only becomes effective there.
  • a protective cover may also form a cavity between an outer shell and the structure for achieving the lateral effect.
  • the protection may be formed by a buffering material which either alone forms the outer shell or is incorporated in the above-mentioned cavity.
  • Such a protective cover may be very interesting, in particular in warheads, since with its aid e.g. single or a plurality of devices to achieve high lateral effects can be introduced into the interior of a hardened or uncured warhead and thus unfold the desired effect there.
  • the body as a whole can be designed according to the concept proposed here, or it can serve as a container for one or more generating devices large lateral effects.
