RU2284454C1 - Cluster warhead for hitting of slightly protected targets - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: armament, applicable for equipment of rockets for hitting of area slightly protected targets.

SUBSTANCE: the warhead has several sections, each of them is made in the form of assemblies with subammunition installed on the stage of carrier separation. The sections consist of two hermetically closed half-bodies filled with inert gas under pressure without any explosive.

EFFECT: enhanced uniformity of distribution of subammunition in the hitting field.

Description

The invention relates to the field of armament and can be used as combat equipment for missiles to defeat areal vulnerable targets.

Closest to the technical nature of the claimed invention is a cluster warhead (warhead) (RU 2230284 C1, publ. 10.06.2004). The closest analogue contains several sections, each of which is made in the form of assemblies with submunitions installed on the stage of dilution of the carrier.

The disadvantage of this device is the insufficiently effective ability to destroy ground areal targets, especially in the face of active opposition.

The objective of the invention is the creation of a cluster warhead with overall weight parameters corresponding to the characteristics of modern and promising launch vehicles, capable of creating striking fields from evenly distributed submunitions. At the same time, several combat sections are triggered, each of which is induced individually.

The required technical result is achieved by the fact that the cluster warhead for hitting low-protected areal targets contains several sections, each of which is made in the form of assemblies with submunitions installed on the carrier dilution stage, while the sections consist of two hermetically sealed half-shells filled with inert gas under pressure no explosive.

The section may have different sizes in accordance with the dimensions of the used submunitions and consists of two steel half-shells, which comprise a sealed assembly with submunitions, filled with inert gas under pressure. The half-shells of the section are kept from opening by the safety device until they are separated from the dilution stage.

A comparative analysis with the prototype showed that the claimed technical solution is distinguished by the presence of submunitions that make up a sealed assembly with half-shells filled with inert gas under pressure. The refusal to use explosives to create a combat order of submunitions allows the use of various types of equipment for the latter.

Since the totality of the introduced elements and their location before the filing date of the application in the patent and scientific literature are not found, the proposed technical solution meets the criterion of "inventive step".

The invention is illustrated in the drawing, which shows a device for defeating areal weakly protected targets, including:

1 - tight assembly;

2 - submunitions;

3 - safety device.

The invention works as follows: on the flight path after separation from the breeding stage, the safety device is removed, under the influence of inert gas under pressure, the section opens, the submunitions disperse, creating a battle formation. The capabilities of modern launch vehicles make it possible to create battle formations from hundreds of submunitions, which excludes the possibility of effective counteraction. The proposed device of military equipment allows you to hit area weak defense targets with a given degree of probability.
