CLUSTER AMMUNITION HITTING MEMBER Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: cluster ammunition, whose shell contains a great number of separate hitting members, mainly of fragmentation-cumulative action. SUBSTANCE: hitting member has a body with filling, cumulative funnel with an open cylindrical bush attached to the body before it, band stabilizer placed on the fuze and coupled to it by a transverse axle. The base part of the body made with additional annular shoulders has the shape of a truncated cone, and the stabilizer band with the transverse axle is bound by means of a bent clamp and zigzagged (enveloped around the fuze), the free end of the stabilizer band is restrained between the last wraps of the zigzag. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of hitting member action, optimized dimensional and mass parameters, which ensure aerodynamic stabilization of self-sufficient flight trajectory to target. 3 dwg
