摘要:
Shown is a family of low spin and essentially no spin, full in-bore 40 mm projectiles which can be fired from a standard M203 or M320 grenade gun launcher. The projectiles have extended range through over 1000 meters and also have the capability for adding on guidance-navigation and control features/components for great accuracy. Increased accuracy is also provided by another, rear fin type projectile embodiment. The projectiles can be lengthened to accommodate more lethal fragments, and increased amount of explosive and energetic. At the same time, there is provided a training round of analogous performance for all these tactical projectiles.
摘要:
A practice mortar bomb comprising a pressure vessel and an outlet valve system, the pressure vessel being arranged in use to contain compressed fluid and the outlet valve system being arranged in use to allow explosive release of the compressed fluid from the pressure vessel upon activation of the valve system by a firing pin in a mortar tube.
摘要:
A simulator for front-loaded barrel weapons, e.g. a mine thrower simulator, is provided with an outlet opening at the lower end of the launcher tube through which the shots, e.g. grenades, exit the launcher tube, thus allowing realistic training conditions. Both the ammunition and the simulator preferably comprise sensors and controls which collect the data from the sensors and perform a first evaluation. The results are transmitted to a computer in the custody of the trainer, which delivers the final evaluation and the calculation of the point of impact, inter alia.
摘要:
A locking pin extends between the firing pin and primer element of a projectile to prevent their engagement during transport and while within the barrel of the firing device because of the radial abutment of a safety member that will move axially out of engagement only after the projectile has left the barrel of the firing device so that the locking member may move radially outward to arm the device. The safety member may be the radial abutment of the cartridge case tubular wall before firing and the interior surfaces of the firing device barrel during firing, with the locking member preferably being spring urged outwardly. Also, the safety member may be an axially extending pin prevented from rearward movement out of engagement with the locking member by a spacer disc separable upon exit from the barrel or the cartridge bottom piece.
摘要:
A training device for a mortar that includes a firing tube with a front, open end, a rear end, a tube wall and a removal opening for removing a round of mortar training ammunition from the firing tube. The training device further includes a base plate to which the rear end of the firing tube is pivotably connected and a support with an aiming and alignment device. The firing tube is movably connected to the support on a front area by the aiming and alignment device. The training device also includes a transport device arranged on the rear and of the firing tube with which rounds of mortar training ammunition can be automatically transported away out of the firing tube through the removal opening.
摘要:
An indirect fire munition non-lethal cargo carrier mortar deploys non-lethal sub-munitions to an intended target. The cargo carrier mortar includes a deceleration system which allows for the discarded mortar to descend at a controlled non-free fall velocity thereby minimizing the risk of injury or collateral damage from the mortar. The cargo carrier mortar is adapted to be compatible with existing standard military equipment such as standard mortar caliber sizes.
摘要:
A weapon system including a weapon, and methods of manufacturing and operating the same. In one embodiment, the weapon includes a guidance section in a front section of the weapon, and a signal cartridge assembly behind the front section and including a signal cartridge configured to provide a signal indicating a location of impact for the weapon.
摘要:
An existing projectile is adapted to a fire control computer instead of adapting the fire control computer to the ammunition, as has been the customary approach. The adaptation is carried out by providing the projectile with a different propellant charge powder but at least increasing the diameter of the flare while the length of the tail piece is kept constant.
摘要:
Gas Projection Device that can take many external forms that simulate military munitions being exploded and that contain features that enhance the sound of the explosion and the appearance of smoke and attendant percussion. Such device can be controlled by many different means including electronic remote control.
