Definitions

  • the invention concerns a hardkill active protection countermeasure, in particular, the protection of tracked and wheeled armoured vehicles and stationary equipment and especially the protection against high velocity projectiles.
  • the reactive protection is usually applied as add on armouring in form of modules initiated at projectile impact.
  • the modules of reactive protection are commonly designed as a steel armour plate accelerated by explosive energy etc.
  • the active armouring (DAS - Defense Aid Suite or APS - Active Protection System) represents the systems of protection, which are able to detect and track the incoming threats with following avoidance of weapon hit or reduction of their effect.
  • the principle of so-called soft kill systems is based on the use of electromagnetic jamming, decoy and use of false signals. The goal of these techniques is avoiding the missile hit of the vehicle.
  • the function of hard kill systems of active protection is focused on destruction, deviation or eventual damage of the missile before its target impact.
  • active protection represents (further in text) the systems of hard kill type. Detection and tracking systems (microwave and infra-red) are components of the active protective system.
  • the counter-munition could have a form of high explosive charges - fragments, large number of small axial symmetrical EFP or shape charges, bars or "flying" plates accelerated explosively or electro-magnetically.
  • the document US 5625160 describes protective device fitted on the structure placed on the front side of protected armour vehicle.
  • the device consists of two parallel plates with accelerating device placed between them.
  • the plates are explosively or electromagnetically fired in mutually opposite directions against attacking projectiles.
  • the document US 6244156 describes another kind of protection based on firing the high explosive energy shell against the attacking threat, especially against KE projectile. Monitoring and control unit belonging to protected object determines an optimal timing for shell firing.
  • Another active protection consisting of at least one module equipped by shape charge and monitoring, control and firing unit is known from document US 6227955 .
  • the control system provides start reaction of given shape charges consequently destroying attacking projectile in the case of emergency.
  • Protective device formed from explosive charge intended for accelerating the metal block(s) against attacking projectile is known from document US 2003164087 .
  • the blocks are designed into the shape of long bars with length size equal or larger than 10x the smallest profile dimension.
  • the blocks are accelerated in accordance with signal from monitoring and control unit.
  • the countermeasure is formed from two main parts, container represents the first one with at least one launcher for fragmenting charge.
  • the second one consists of control and tracking unit. Fragments are defeating the incoming warhead.
  • the system consists of independent modules, which are formed from plates or tubes fitted with conductive strips.
  • the contact between the strip and attacking projectile is detected by the control unit, which provides appropriate countermeasure.
  • Such countermeasure can be performed by means of module plates motion or explosive acceleration of other elements against projectile.
  • the document EP 922924 describes object protection based on acceleration of elements of different shapes against incoming projectile.
  • the elements can be accelerated by chemical, mechanical, pneumatic or hybrid way with possibility of accelerating to different directions.
  • the system consists of boxes formed from two plates segregated by explosive.
  • the box also contains additional explosive and fuse for plate acceleration.
  • the monitoring system locates approaching projectile, the box is activated and plates accelerated against projectile.
  • the document DE 4122622 deals with protective system employing pyrotechnically or electromagnetically ejected armour plate against the incoming projectile after its detection.
  • This system consists of electromagnetic sandwich, which is composed of protective elements, device for protective elements activation and acceleration and sensor intended for tracking of attacking projectile.
  • the protected object is fitted with main and additional armour.
  • There is a space between armours and additional armour is equipped with acceleration device.
  • the armour is explosively accelerated in following matter. After the projectile impact, the additional armour is accelerated in the direction of main armour, which leads to decrease of relative velocity of impact to additional armour.
  • the explosion of initiatory elongated charge forms the metal liner into a profile of "axe-like" shape. This profile, when fired against the moving projectile, destroys, bends or diverts the projectile.
  • the metal liner is to advantage composed of appropriately shaped metal stripe.
  • the minimum density of the material is 7.8 g/cm3, which is density minimally equal or higher than density of iron.
  • the material must show high plasticity, proved by minimal ductility of 20%.
  • Such material could be represented by commercially pure iron, low carbon unalloyed steel, commercially pure tantalum and tantalum alloys, commercially pure molybdenum and molybdenum alloys, commercially pure wolfram and wolfram alloys, commercially pure copper and copper alloys or commercially pure nickel and nickel alloys.
  • the metal liner can be manufactured from material with lower density than density of iron. In such case the optimal or even the highest possible effect of the hard kill active protection countermeasure according to invention may not be reached.
  • the shaped stripe of the liner is to advantage created in the following way.
  • the rounding can be performed by way of cylindrical, oval or similar surface, the cranking by way of one or two bends (from 90 to 180°). Both forming, rounding and cranking, can be possibly combined.
  • the metal liner is thus open at the side en face the initiatory elongated charge. This fact supports explosive forming of linear projectile profile as a hard kill active protection countermeasure according to invention. Nevertheless, the metal liner could be in principle formed even by flat stripe.
  • the metal liner is in its standard design formed by stripe, which is at least 3x longer than wide.
  • the metal liner (or stripe, which is the liner formed from) can vary in its thickness along the cross section.
  • the metal liner is generally thickest in its middle part and the thickness is decreasing in the direction to longer edges. Thickness of the edges can vary from 0.1 to 1.0 multiple of the maximum liner thickness.
  • the elongated charge is often formed from disruptive plastic explosive with minimal hexogen (RDX) or oktogen (HMX) content of 80 % by weight and detonation velocity over 7000 m/s.
  • the amount of explosive is to be set according to final ballistic coefficient (the ratio between explosive weight and metal liner weight), which is supposed to be min. 1.2.
  • the explosive layer can vary in its thickness along the cross section.
  • the explosive layer is generally thickest in its middle part and the thickness is decreasing in the direction to longer edges.
  • the thickness of the edges can vary from 0.1 to 1.0 multiple of the maximum explosive thickness.
  • the hardkill active protection countermeasure according to invention is a powerful tool when protecting vehicles or stationary objects.
  • the explosively formed linear projectile profile can by means of interactions violate the integrity of long-rod projectile, missile with shaped charge or EFP or change their trajectory.
  • the hardkill active protection countermeasure ( Fig. 1 ), which does not form part of the claimed invention consists of linear projectile profile formed by explosion from metal liner 1 by means of initiatory plastic explosive elongated charge 2.
