INCENDIARY NOSE CONE OF ROTATING ROCKET Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: military equipment. SUBSTANCE: invention can be used in design of rotating rockets, including rocket missiles of reaction systems of salvo fire. Incendiary nose cone includes faring, thin-walled body-tank with liquid filling agent based on oil products and air space, gear scattering and igniting filling agent. Diaphragm with axially symmetric holes is located in tank behind center of mass of nose cone at some distance from it not exceeding 3D. Gear scattering and igniting filling agent is placed in thin-walled cylinder installed along longitudinal axis of nose cone between fairing and diaphragm. In this case area of holes in diaphragm amounts to (0.0005-0.0015)η and diameter of cylinder is (0.25-0.3)D, where η is viscosity of filling agent; S is cross section area of tank; D is diameter of tank. Manufacture of nose cone in accordance with invention makes it possible to raise efficiency of fire hitting by 3-4 times, to increase accuracy and density of hits of target by 20-30%. EFFECT: raised efficiency of fire hitting, increased accuracy and density of hits. 1 dwg
