Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Gefechtskopf mit einer Zündeinrichtung und einer projektilbildenden Ladung.The invention relates to a warhead with an ignition device and a projectile-forming charge.
Derartige Gefechtsköpfe sind seit langem bekannt und befinden sich beispielsweise in Artilleriemunition, Raketen, aber auch in Minen. Dabei besteht die projektilbildende Ladung üblicherweise aus einer Flachkegelladung, d.h. einer in der Regel verdämmten Sprengladung mit in Hauptwirkrichtung gesehener vorderseitiger Aushöhlung, in die eine kegelförmige Einlage aus z.B. Kupfer oder Weicheisen eingelegt ist. Nach Zündung des Sprengstoffes bewirkt die Detonationswelle eine Verformung der Einlage, so dass sich ein Projektil ergibt, welches durch eine entsprechende Heckaufweitung bei seinem Flug stabilisiert wird.Such warheads have long been known and are for example in artillery ammunition, rockets, but also in mines. The projectile-forming charge usually consists of a flat-cone charge, i. a generally dammed explosive charge having a front-side cavity seen in the main direction of action into which a conical insert of e.g. Copper or soft iron is inserted. After ignition of the explosive detonation wave causes a deformation of the insert, so that there is a projectile, which is stabilized by a corresponding rear expansion during its flight.
Als nachteilig hat es sich bei den bekannten Gefechtsköpfen ergeben, dass die projektilbildenden Ladungen zwar eine hohe panzerbrechende Wirkung hinsichtlich ihres Durchdringungsvermögens besitzen, dass aber im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen KE-Geschossen die Erzeugung von Sekundärsplittern, welche die Panzerbesatzung kampfunfähig machen soll, relativ gering und daher unzureichend ist.It has proved to be disadvantageous in the known warheads that the projectile-forming charges have a high armor-piercing effect in terms of their Durchdringungsvermögens, but that in contrast to conventional KE projectiles, the generation of secondary splinters, which should make the tank crew incapacitated, relatively low and therefore is insufficient.
Die
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Gefechtskopf der eingangs erwähnten Art anzugeben, bei dem mit der projektilbildenden Ladung ein Projektil durch Sprengumformung gebildet wird, welches im Ziel eine Sekundärleistung aufweist, die nicht nur größer ist als diejenige vergleichbarer projektilbildender Ladungen, sondern auch vergleichbarer KE-Munition.The invention has for its object to provide a warhead of the type mentioned, in which the projectile-forming charge a projectile is formed by explosive deformation, which has a secondary performance in the target, which is not only greater than that of comparable projectile-forming charges, but also comparable KE -Ammunition.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung offenbaren die Unteransprüche.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further, particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention disclose the dependent claims.
Die Erfindung beruht im wesentlichen auf dem Gedanken, das Projektil nicht durch die Einwirkung der Detonationswelle auf eine Flachkegeleinlage, sondern auf ein Metallrohr, vorzugsweise aus Stahl, Wolfram, Tantal oder Kupfer, zu erzeugen, dessen Symmetrieachse in der Hauptwirkrichtung des zu erzeugenden Projektiles angeordnet ist.The invention is based essentially on the idea not to produce the projectile by the action of the detonation wave on a flat cone insert, but on a metal tube, preferably made of steel, tungsten, tantalum or copper, whose axis of symmetry is arranged in the main direction of action of the projectile to be generated ,
Das Metallrohr ist dabei mindestens in Teilbereichen von einer verdämmten Sprengladung umgeben, so daß die Detonationswelle nach Zündung der Sprengladung derart auf das Metallrohr einwirkt, daß dieses in bezug auf die Hauptwirkrichtung von hinten nach vorne zu einem Projektil kompaktiert und in die besagte Richtung beschleunigt wird.The metal tube is surrounded at least in some areas by a dammed explosive charge, so that the detonation wave after ignition of the explosive charge acts on the metal tube that this is compacted with respect to the main direction of action from back to front to a projectile and accelerated in the said direction.
Während die Kompaktierung des Metallrohres im wesentlichen durch die orthogonale Komponente der Detonationswelle verursacht wird, erfolgt die Beschleunigung des entstehenden Projektiles auf eine hohe Geschwindigkeit im wesentlichen durch die axiale Komponente der Detonationswelle, welche vor allem auf den Übergangsbereich zwischen dem bereits kompaktierten und dem noch nicht kompaktierten Rohrabschnitt wirkt.While the compaction of the metal tube is essentially caused by the orthogonal component of the detonation wave, the acceleration of the resulting projectile to a high velocity is essentially due to the axial component of the detonation wave, which is primarily on the transition region between the already compacted and the not yet compacted Pipe section works.
Das Metallrohr ist innenseitig mit einem Einlagenrohr geringerer Dichte, vorzugsweise aus Aluminium oder Magnesium, ausgekleidet. Durch die Verwendung einer Substanz geringerer Dichte innerhalb des Rohres wird erreicht, daß das zu penetrierende Hindernis quasi "ausgestanzt" wird, so daß insgesamt weniger Energie für die Bohrarbeit erforderlich ist und mehr Energie für die Beschleunigung der entstehenden Partikel zur Verfügung stehen (größere Sekundärwirkung).The metal tube is lined on the inside with a lower-density liner tube, preferably made of aluminum or magnesium. By using a substance of lower density within the tube it is achieved that the obstacle to be penetrated is quasi "punched out", so that overall less energy is required for the drilling work and more energy for the acceleration of the resulting particles are available (greater secondary effect) ,
Alternativ ist vorgesehen, daß der Hohlraum des Metallrohres mit einem Pulver, z.B. aus Aluminiumteilchen, ausgefüllt ist, wobei die Körnung des Pulvers zwischen 0,3 mm und 5 mm liegen sollte. Durch Verwendung eines derartigen Pulvers wird erreicht, daß durch die Variation der Schüttdichte der Kompaktierungsgrad einstellbar ist.Alternatively, it is provided that the cavity of the metal tube is filled with a powder, for example of aluminum particles, wherein the grain size of the powder should be between 0.3 mm and 5 mm. By using such a powder it is achieved that the degree of compaction can be adjusted by varying the bulk density.
Der erfindungsgemäße Gefechtskopf kann vorzugsweise bei Mehrzweckgeschossen eingesetzt werden. Hierzu braucht lediglich die Verdämmung der Sprengladung als Splitterhülle ausgebildet sein. Der zwischen dem Metallrohr und der Splitterhülle angeordnete Sprengstoff bewirkt dann eine wesentlich größere Sprengwirkung als bei den vergleichbaren, mit einer Flachkegeleinlage versehenen Mehrzweckgeschossen.The warhead according to the invention can preferably be used in multi-purpose projectiles. For this purpose, only the damming of the explosive charge needs to be designed as a splinter shell. The explosive disposed between the metal tube and the splinter shell then causes a much greater explosive effect than in the comparable, provided with a flat cone insert multi-purpose projectiles.
Um eine Behinderung des durch Sprengumformung erzeugten Projektiles durch die Gefechtskopfhülle zu vermeiden, weist diese, in Hauptwirkrichtung des Projektiles gesehen, eine geringere Wandstärke auf als in ihrem restlichen Bereich oder besitzt alternativ eine Öffnung, deren Durchmesser mindestens dem Durchmesser des nach Sprengumformung sich ergebenden Projektiles entspricht.In order to prevent obstruction of the projectile generated by explosive deformation by the warhead casing, this has, seen in the main direction of the projectile, a smaller wall thickness than in the remaining area or alternatively has an opening whose diameter corresponds at least to the diameter of the resulting after detonation projectile ,

In
In der Geschoßhülle 4 befindet sich heckseitig eine Zündeinrichtung 5, an die sich in Richtung der Symmetrieachse 6 des Geschosses 1 vorderseitig ein Metallrohr 7 aus Stahl mit einem Einlagenrohr 8 aus Aluminium anschließt. Dabei fallen die Symmetrieachse 6 des Geschosses 1 und die Symmetrieachse 9 des Metallrohres 7 zusammen. Die Zündeinrichtung 5 und das Metallrohr 7 sind rotationssymmetrisch von einer Sprengladung 10, bestehend aus einem kunststoffgebundenen Explosivstoff, umgeben. Außerdem ist zwischen der Zündeinrichtung 5 und dem Metallrohr 7 ein Detonationswellenlenker 18 angeordnet (
Nachfolgend wird der Vorgang, der zur Ausbildung eines Projektiles bei der Sprengumformung führt, mit Hilfe der
Befindet sich das Mehrzweckgeschoß 1 in unmittelbarer Umgebung eines zu bekämpfenden gepanzerten Zieles, so wird z.B. mittels eines nicht dargestellten Abstandszünders die Zündeinrichtung 5 aktiviert, welche ihrerseits die Sprengladung 10 zündet. Dadurch entstehen hochgespannte Gase 11, welche das Metallrohr 7 und das darin befindliche Einlagenrohr 8 fortschreitend von hinten nach vorne kompaktieren. Dabei sorgt der Detonationswellenlenker 18 durch Umlenkung der Detonationswellenfront für eine symmetrische Kompaktierung.If the multipurpose projectile 1 is located in the immediate vicinity of an armored target to be attacked, e.g. by means of a proximity fuse, not shown, the
Die mit 12 gekennzeichnete Detonationswellenfront wirkt axial auf den stufenförmigen Übergangsbereich 13 zwischen dem bereits kompaktierten Rohrbereich 14 und dem noch nicht kompaktierten Rohrbereich 15, so daß das sich bildende Projektil gleichzeitig in Richtung der Symmetrieachsen 6 und 9 beschleunigt wird. Dadurch entsteht ein relativ langes Projektil hoher Geschwindigkeit und somit hoher kinetischer Energie, welches das gepanzerte Ziel durchschlägt und eine außerordentlich große Sekundärleistung aufweist.The detonation wavefront marked 12 acts axially on the step-
Das ebenfalls kompaktierte Einlagenrohr bewirkt vor allem einen Dichtegradienten in dem Penetrator und führt zu einer Erhöhung der Sekundärwirkung.The likewise compacted liner tube causes above all a density gradient in the penetrator and leads to an increase in the secondary effect.
Gleichzeitig mit der Bildung des Projektiles wird auch die Splitterhülle 4 des Geschosses 1 zerstört und verursacht einen Splitterregen in der Umgebung des zu bekämpfenden Zieles.Simultaneously with the formation of the projectile and the

Die Erfindung ist selbstverständlich nicht auf die vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. So kann die Geschoßhülle vorderseitig dünnwandiger als im restlichen Bereich des Geschoßkörpers ausgebildet werden oder dort offen bleiben, damit das beschleunigte Projektil möglichst ungehindert durch die Geschoßhülle austritt.The invention is of course not limited to the embodiments described above. Thus, the projectile casing front thin-walled than in the remaining area of the projectile body are formed or remain open there, so that the accelerated projectile exits through the projectile casing as unhindered.
Das Metallrohr kann an seinen Enden sowohl offen als auch geschlossen ausgebildet sein. Offen wird es vor allem dann ausgebildet, wenn eine körnige Substanz verwendet wird, so daß diese nicht "weggeblasen" wird. Geschlossen wird es hingegen vor allem dann ausgebildet, wenn ein Rohr als Einlage verwendet wird.The metal tube may be formed at its ends both open and closed. Open, it is especially formed when a granular substance is used so that it is not "blown away". Closed, however, it is especially trained when a pipe is used as an insert.
