Definitions

  • the invention relates to an incendiary device for a wing stabilized balancing projectile, which in the Rearward area of the projectile can be arranged and when hitting a target behind the projectile Penetrator of the bullet as a separate unit penetrates into the target.
  • Wing stabilized balancing projectiles in which incendiary devices in the rear area of the Bullet are arranged, for example, in the German patent applications DE 199 48 708.1 and DE 199 48 710.3.
  • balancing bullets is replaces the commonly used tracer set with the set of flames to achieve that the bullet when hitting on semi-hard targets (for example, with a relative thin armor provided infantry fighting vehicles) unfolds a considerable fire effect. Because without such a fire sentence of the penetrator of the bullet would be the fly through a semi-hard target and have no significant destructive effect on it, but only a maximum projectile diameter corresponding hole in create the armor.
  • DE-AS 29 01 517 are incendiary, consisting of a metal sponge and an organic Binders are known.
  • these known incendiary are not optimal can be initiated by shock waves, especially not if only relatively small Quantities of the corresponding fire rate can be used, as this at the Tracer replacing lightning incendiaries of balancing bullets is the case.
  • the invention is based on the object, incendiary for wing-stabilized balancing projectiles which despite a relatively small volume and a low mass cause a large destructive effect within a target and upon impact a target can be safely ignited by the resulting shockwaves.
  • the invention is based on the idea, as fire set a titanium sponge to use, as an epoxy or polyester resin binder used becomes. Since the incendiary contains no oxygen carrier, it is relatively insensitive.
  • the titanium sponge particles are then heated up to the ignition temperature and continue to burn intensively with release of the particles with the atmospheric oxygen.
  • incendiary invention Another advantage of the incendiary invention is that they are normal Condition behave like an inert material and only with a very strong impact can be brought to inflammation. It is therefore also in case of missing the goal one Safe handling of the projectile possible if the fire is not damaged.
  • the fire set consists of a mixture of 85 to 96% by weight titanium sponge and 4 to 15% by weight of the epoxy or polyester resin and has a density of between 1.7 and 2.8 g / cm 3 is located.
  • the grain size of the boron powder should preferably be ⁇ 10 microns.
  • the fire rate therefore consists of a mixture of 65 to 86 wt .-% titanium sponge, 4 to 15 wt .-% of an epoxy or polyester resin and 10 to 20 wt .-% boron powder, the density of the fire rate turn between 1.7 and 2.8 g / cm 3 .
  • the grain size range of the titanium sponge to be chosen such that 30% of titanium sponge particles have a particle size greater than 450 microns and 70% have a particle size less than 450 microns.
  • balancing projectile 1 denotes a large-caliber wing-stabilized balancing projectile, as it is for example, from tank cannons is fired.
  • the balancing projectile 1 comprises a Penetrator 2 and attached to the penetrator tail 3. This consists essentially from a sleeve-shaped tail boom 4 with stabilizing wings arranged on the outside 5 and in the direction of the longitudinal axis 6 of the balancing projectile 1 extending and on the penetrator 2 side facing by this closed Recess 7.
  • the rear-side area 8 of the penetrator 2 extends into a second partial area 9 of the recess 7 and is connected to the tail unit 4, e.g. via a threaded connection 10 positively connected.
  • the Fire sentence 14 is in the recess 7 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 6 of the balancing projectile 1 arranged displaceably.
  • the stabilizing wings 5 of the tail unit 3 splinter and the capsule 12 of the fire sentence 14 at least in some areas tears.
  • the torn capsule 12 flies due to their inertia from the released Opening 16 of the recess 7 of the tail boom 4 behind the penetrator 2 ago and shattered e.g. on the back wall or on items in the tank and gives it the fire sentence free. This reacts with the atmospheric oxygen, so that a hot, beausprühender Sparks rain with considerable fire effect arises.
