RU164994U1 - COMBINED PROTECTIVE AMMUNITION OF A FLAT FORM FOR ACTIVE PROTECTION COMPLEXES - Google Patents

Abstract

The combined protective ammunition of a flat form for active protection systems for samples of armored weapons and equipment, combining the functions of the damaging effect and the functions of setting the aerosol curtain, due to the use in the design of the ammunition, in addition to the composition of the explosive, for attacking the attacking ammunition, four capsules with smoke-forming aerosol composition, in order to interfere with the operation of optoelectronic equipment, means of observation and aiming weapons at a target, as well as difficulty in observing otivnika and reduce the effectiveness of his fire.

Description

The utility model relates to the field of military equipment, in particular, to the field of protection of armored objects from anti-tank ammunition.

Active Defense Complex (KAZ) is a defense system, the principle of which consists in the fact that using the means installed on the object, a projectile flying up to it is detected and this projectile is impacted (for example, a shot towards from a special grenade launcher) in order to destroy it or at least a decrease in its effectiveness.

Known KAZ of armored objects having protective ammunition of a flat shape as part of the destruction system:

active protection of the tank "Arena-E", the lead developer of the Kolomna design bureau of mechanical engineering;

Trophy's active defense system, developed by the Israeli Rafael Advanced Defense Systems (RADS) and Israel Aircraft Industries Elta Group.

active protection system AMAP-ADS, developed by the German company ADS Gesellschaft fur aktive Schutzsysteme mbH, a subsidiary of IBD Deisenroth Engineering specializing in the development and manufacture of protective equipment for military equipment.

The prototype of the claimed utility model is the self-defense system of the vehicle "Arena-E" according to the patent No. 2102678 of the Russian Federation, F41A 23/00, publ. 01/20/98, Engineering Design Bureau. The design of the ammunition is described in the patent No. 2127861 of the Russian Federation of the same company.

In this system, for targeted destruction of enemy missiles and grenades, narrow-acting protective ammunition is used, which have very high speed and are located around the perimeter of the tank turret in special installation mines.

The sequence of work of the Arena-E complex is as follows:

- after switching on, the radar automatically searches for targets flying to the tank;

- then the station is switched to auto tracking mode, generating the parameters of the target’s movement and transmitting them to the computer, which selects the number of protective ammunition and the time of its operation;

- protective ammunition forms a bunch of damaging elements that destroy the target on approaching the tank.

One of the disadvantages of the known KAZ is the following:

In the process of destroying the target, the protective ammunition and the projectile are undermined, with the formation of explosion products, which are unmasking signs for the tank, which increases the likelihood of its detection and destruction by other anti-tank weapons (PTS) of the enemy.

The objective of this utility model is to increase the security of armored weapons models equipped with KAZ by staging a protective munition with a smoke screen. The prototype for the utility model was a protective flat ammunition used at KAZ Arena-E.

Technical solutions of the proposed utility model are:

1. Installation of four capsules with a smoke-forming aerosol composition around the perimeter in the protective munition housing. The size of the capsules should ensure the formation of a smoke screen necessary for the complete closure of the protected object.

2. The formation of a smokescreen at the same time as undermining the main part of the protective ammunition in case of defeat of the attacking TCP enemy.

The technical result of the proposed utility model is:

1. An increase in the inaccessibility of armored vehicles equipped with KAZ to the impact of enemy weapons.

2. Ensuring the secrecy of the location of weapons from the enemy.

3. Difficulty observing the enemy and reducing the effectiveness of his fire.

4. Interference with the operation of optoelectronic equipment, means of observation and aiming weapons at the target.

A useful model is illustrated in FIG. 1, which shows an improved protective ammunition of a flat shape on the example of KAZ "Arena-E", where: 1 - a plastic case, 2 - capsules with a smoke-forming composition, 3 - explosive, 4 - fuse, 5 - blow charge.

The principle of operation of the proposed utility model is illustrated in FIG. 2, where: 6 - destruction of the PTS attacker, 7 - aerosol cloud, 8 - blasting of protective ammunition, 9 - tank equipped with KAZ.

KAZ mounted on the tank using detection tools provides a search for targets flying to the tank. After analyzing the information received, the complex is transferred to the tracking mode, during which a set of information about the parameters of the target’s movement and its transfer to the computer (VM) takes place. Based on the processing of the incoming information, the VM determines the number of the protective munition and the time it was activated. At the estimated time, the VM issues a command to shoot and detonate the selected protective munition. When it is triggered, a directional field of damaging elements is formed, the ingress of which into the target leads to its defeat or decrease in efficiency. At the same time, an aerosol curtain is formed in the direction of the threat, which makes it possible to hide the protected object from the enemy.

The indicated method of increasing the effectiveness of the KAZ of armored weapons samples will allow the enemy to automatically set an aerosol curtain in the direction of the threat when reflecting the attacking ammunition of the enemy's PTS. This model can be used in the modernization of protective ammunition of a flat shape of any KAZ
