WARHEAD OF GRENADE FOR JET ANTI-TANK GRENADE LAUNCHER Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F42B12/20 F42B12/42 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to high-explosive fragmentation grenades for jet anti-tank grenade launchers, which simultaneously form circular fields of destruction of fragmentation and high-explosive actions during explosion. Warhead of a grenade for a rocket-propelled grenade launcher comprises a cylindrical housing with an inner active shell of metal powder particles, in the central cavity of which there is a main charge of high-energy explosive, and a fuse with an intermediate detonator. Active shell is made of metal particles of different diameter, varying along the length of the active shell in the form of a wave sequence—first ascending from small to medium and then to large, then with a decrease in the diameter of the particles to small and again with increase. Number of such waves n must be placed on the length L of the active shell n=L/(d/2), where d is the caliber of the grenade, with n rounded to the nearest integer, but not less than 1.

EFFECT: increased damaging effect of the grenade.
