AMMUNITION FOR GRENADE LAUNCHER AGAINST UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F42B12/56 F42B30/00 F41H11/06 

FIELD: ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to ammunition intended for neutralization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). Ammunition for a grenade launcher against a UAV contains a tail part rigidly interconnected by an axisymmetric element, which includes a propellant charge with a primer, and a head part equipped with a guide belt for twisting in the grenade launcher barrel and including a catching net in a laying with peripheral metal elements evenly distributed and fixed on it, as well as a knockout device, with the possibility of dome-shaped opening of the catching net, due to the said knockout device and peripheral metal elements, with the midship of the opened catching net exceeding the ammunition midship, and without separation of the catching net from the ammunition. Axisymmetric element is made in the form of central bearing rod of ammunition. Head and tail parts of the ammunition are spaced apart along the said central bearing rod to form an open annular gap, with the possibility of a working exit through it to the outside of the catching net with peripheral metal elements under the effect of pressure from the knockout device. Knockout device is made in the form of a head powder charge provided in front of the catching net in the packing and connected to the propellant charge by an axial channel in the said central bearing rod of the ammunition with the initiating inert powder charge, with possibility of outlet under pressure together with catching net with peripheral metal elements from head part into said open annular gap between tail and head parts.

EFFECT: simpler design and higher safety of ammunition.
