METHOD FOR DETERMINING CHARACTERISTICS OF FRAGMENTATION FIELD OF AMMUNITION, AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F42B35/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: method consists in arrangement of a semi-cylindrical target made in the form of N sectors of proximity detectors and determination of a differential law of distribution of fragments in dispersion directions in each echelon of the fragmentation filed of ammunitions based on fixation of coordinates of actuated sensitive elements of a photoelectric detector in an image plane. Then, mass of fragments is determined. After that, law of distribution of fragments by mass is determined in each echelon of the ammunition fragmentation field based on determination of mass and fixation of coordinates of actuated sensitive elements in space. The device includes a blasting chamber, an initiation device and ammunition, PC, a radar speed metre and a semi-cylindrical target made in the form of proximity detectors with N sectors, N units of primary information processing. The blasting chamber has a slot, the width and length of which allows catching the part of ammunition fragmentation field. Radar speed metre consists of in-series connected antenna, high-frequency generator, a unit of broad-band amplifiers, n filters, the first inputs of n switches; with that, the second inputs of n switches are connected to the initiation device output. Outputs of n switches are connected with n inputs of PC.

EFFECT: improving test informativity.
