Definitions

  • the invention relates to a penetrator and a sub-caliber ammunition or projectile receiving this penetrator.
  • the penetrator according to the invention is characterized in that it has an interface in the front area. Via this geometric interface, a base penetrator created according to the invention can be provided with different penetrator tips and supplemented to form an individually designed KE penetrator. Base penetrator as well as the penetrator tips are to be considered as a module. Due to this modular design, the penetrator can also be upgraded on site by attaching a new module of a penetrator tip specifically to the target.
  • the present idea consists in dividing a solid penetrator in its length, in particular in constructing it in two parts, so that the penetrator is divided or separated into a so-called base part and a so-called attachment part.
  • the attachment part can be adapted or adapted to the corresponding goals. This allows the penetrator to be matched to the target on site.
  • the adhesion depends on the ratio of the interface 14 of the base penetrator 11 and the length of the penetrator tip 15, 16, 17. However, it should be sufficient to limit the length of the interface 14, i.e. the pin interacting with the attachment parts 12, to 50% of the diameter of the Penetrator 10 to choose.

Claims (10)

  1. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) destiné à un projectile (2) comprenant un sabot (3) et un empennage (4), dans lequel le pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) est massif et divisé sur sa longueur, de sorte que le pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) est séparé en une partie formant base (11) et une partie formant coiffe (12) reliées l'une à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'une liaison par complémentarité de forme et/ou de force pour laquelle la partie formant base (11) et la partie formant coiffe (12) disposent respectivement d'une interface (14, 18), dans lequel la partie formant coiffe (12) est une pointe de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17) pouvant être sélectionnée parmi une pluralité de pointes de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17) de différentes longueurs afin de constituer le pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10), et dans lequel la partie formant base (11) forme un pénétrateur de base raccourci, dans lequel le pénétrateur de base (11) et la pointe de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17) sont des modules qui forment le pénétrateur à énergie cinétique par coiffage avec la pointe de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17), caractérisé en ce que la liaison est mise en œuvre sous la forme d'une liaison à baïonnette.
  2. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que l'interface (14) du pénétrateur (10) est mise en place au niveau de sa région antérieure (13).
  3. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon la revendication 1 ou 2, caractérisé en ce qu'un adhésif assurant la liaison est utilisé.
  4. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 3, caractérisé en ce que le pénétrateur de base (12) ainsi que les pointes de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17) peuvent être constitués de métaux denses à base de tungstène, de carbure de tungstène, d'acier à haute résistance, de cuivre, d'uranium appauvri ou de tantale.
  5. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 4, caractérisé en ce que les pointes de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17) et le pénétrateur de base (12) sont constitués de matériaux différents.

  8. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 7, caractérisé en ce que le verrouillage par complémentarité de force dépend du rapport entre l'interface (14) du pénétrateur de base (11) et la longueur de la pointe de pénétrateur (15, 16, 17), dans lequel il est suffisant que la longueur de l'interface (14) du pénétrateur de base (11) représente 50 % du diamètre du pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10).
  9. Pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 8, caractérisé en ce qu'il est possible de faire correspondre le pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) à la cible sur site.
  10. Projectile (2) comprenant un pénétrateur à énergie cinétique (10) selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 9.
