ACTIVE PROTECTION SYSTEM OF ARMORED OBJECTS Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC F41A23/00 F41H5/00 

FIELD: military equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to protection of armored objects from antitank ammunition. System consists of protective container for launching containers with protective ammunition placed in them, installed on rotating base with lifting system and equipped with vertical and horizontal guidance mechanisms, radar station for detection and determination of anti-tank ammunition coordinate parameters or unit for connection to another complex (active protection system), aiming system with drives in horizontal and vertical planes. Each protective ammunition contains two detonators—one contact, the other—detonating fuse for blasting on trajectory. Warhead comprises volumetric detonating mixture with ignition-explosive charge. In the rear part there is a reference (an unfolding stabilizer). In the same place the jet engine connected with ammunition by means of collet is located. Protective container design provides for the possibility of dilution of launching containers of protective ammunition relative to central axis in horizontal and vertical planes. Protective container is connected with rotary base by lifting system consisting of levers and drives to lift protective container in vertical plane. Protective container design provides installation of protective curtains of launching containers arranged in front part of protective container. Besides, protective container design envisages installation of launching containers with smoke and fire-and-smoke equipment.

EFFECT: technical result consists in increase of damaging effect.
