Definitions

  • the invention relates to an explosive and fire projectile according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the projectile casing produced according to very complex manufacturing processes consists on the one hand of inner and outer tubular bodies of the same material, whereas on the other hand the embedded projectile bodies are made of a material with a significantly higher density.
  • the cross-section of the inner and outer tubular bodies is relatively wide in order to embed the projectile body 5. However, this does not make it possible to significantly increase the average specific weight of the shell.
  • the invention is based on the known projectile the task, in addition to the generation of a safe fire effect when striking any, from the cross-section of the shell of the splinter on flammable substances, to simplify the structure of the projectile in such a way that a high penetrating effect of the projectile and Projectile shell fragments can be achieved with full-caliber explosive and fire projectiles, especially in the caliber range less than 40 mm.
  • the invention makes it possible, compared to the projectile known from DE-OS 25 57 676, for a full-caliber explosive and fire projectile with a comparatively equal mass projectile casing to execute the casing wall thickness, due to the homogeneity and high density of the material, relatively thin-walled.
  • the advantageous enlargement of the space available for the explosive charge not only is a comparatively higher gas impact achieved, but on the other hand the shell fragments are accelerated with greater energy.
  • the shell is homogeneous and from a ge sintered heavy metal alloy with a density greater than 17 g / cm 3 is produced, in addition to a very simple structure of the projectile shell, results in a high and effective splintering effect, in particular resulting from the entire cross section of the projectile shell, in which a cumulative splintering effect is caused by the formation of so-called fragments or swarms of splinters becomes.
  • a hood-shaped projectile shell 1, designed as a projectile upper part, of a full-caliber explosive and fire projectile encloses an explosive charge 3 in its interior and a projectile body lower part 2 on the rear side. wherein a propellant charge sleeve is connected at the rear, but this is also not shown in the drawing in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the projectile tip 4 is formed as part of the projectile envelope 1 and has a conical jacket 10 extending from the tip 15 in the rear direction.
  • the entire projectile envelope 1, including the area 5 of the projectile enclosed by the jacket 10 to the explosive charge 3 tip 4, according to the invention consist of a homogeneous material of a sintered heavy metal alloy with a density greater than 17 g / cm 3 , a heavy metal alloy has emerged as a particularly suitable material for a high penetration rate of lightly armored targets and for the safe occurrence of a fire when striking flammable substances proven at least 85% to a maximum of 98% tungsten with additions of iron, cobalt and nickel.
  • FIG. 2 shows a full-caliber explosive and fire projectile in which a predominant length range a of the projectile casing 1 consists of a homogeneous material of the heavy metal alloy described in FIG. 1.
  • the projectile casing front part 8 consists of a material that differs from the projectile casing 1 and has a lower density. Characterized in that the length range a of the projectile shell 1 envelops the explosive charge 3 in a larger portion b and the projectile shell front part 8 is hollow, this projectile allows the absorption of a particularly large amount of the explosive charge 3.
  • the lower part 2 of the projectile body is as in FIG Guide ring 9, an adjustable bottom impact igniter 16 and a tracer body 17, the projectile casing 1 being connected to the lower part 2 of the projectile body in a section c lying in front of the guide ring 9.
  • the length range a of the projectile casing 1 is largely tubular up to the ogive 6 of the projectile casing 1, the ends on the inside 7 according to FIGS. 4 and 5
  • this explosive and fire projectile is able to penetrate lightly armored targets, whereby the fragments of the projectile, especially encapsulated instruments, which are subsequently effective in the target interior, are destroyed and a fire effect such as already described under Fig. 1 occurs.
  • FIG. 3 in which the projectile body lower part 2 is completely encompassed laterally by a rearward extension of the projectile envelope 1 shown in FIG. 1, is shown in FIG. 3.
  • the guide ring 12 is on the outer casing 11 in the lateral region of the lower part 2 of the projectile body inseparably connected to the projectile casing 1 by a heat treatment, in particular by a soldered connection.
  • this explosive and fire projectile contains an adjustable ground impact detonator 16, but does not contain a tracer body, this projectile has a greater capacity of explosive charge 3 than the projectile according to FIG. 1.
  • This projectile is also particularly suitable for fighting lightly armored targets, the armor penetration being generated by the kinetic energy of the projectile tip 4.
  • the extended shell 1 contributes to the fact that a high degree of splintering and fire effects can be achieved.
