EXPLOSIVELY FORMED PROJECTILE WITH FIRE-BASED PIT Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC F42B1/02 F42B1/32 F42B12/10 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to ammunition for combat armored vehicles, including robotic armored vehicles. Explosively formed projectile consists of an explosive blasting substance with a spherical recess located at the front end of the charge and lined with sheet metal, the fuse and the device for remote detonation of the charge, located on the opposite second end of the charge, the outer case, the head fairing and the head sensor of the pulse-to-electric pulse transducer for self-detonating the ammunition connected to the fuse by means of an electrical conductor. Tight-fitting metal spherical recess is made of several layers. Inner layer adjacent to the explosive material is made in the form of a thin sheet metal of copper or its alloy. Second layer is made of an alloy of nickel forming boron hydride Ni(BH₄)₂, and of a set of thin sheets. Outer metal layer is made of copper or its alloy, the thickness of which is many times greater than the first inner layer; outer surface of the explosively formed projectile is formed of it.

EFFECT: invention improves the efficiency and reliability of accurate aiming.
