Definitions
- PROJECTILE WITH MULTIPLE EFFECT [72] Inventors: Gunnar Giliarhus; Hans Vien, both of Raufoss, Norway [21] Appl.No.: 866,662
- the present invention relates to projectiles having multiple eflect for use in ammunition to be fired from aircraft guns, anti-aircraft guns and ground artillery as well as for navy purposes, of small caliber, for instance up to 40 mm.
- the basic principle of the invention may, however, also be adapted to greater calibers.
- Incendiary projectiles are known being charged with incendiary material in both of the main components of the grenade, that is the top portion and the body portion.
- An incendiary projectile having such a construction has a strongly limited use in that it may only subjected to relatively small G- values. Consequently ammunition of this type and when used in modern weapons with high initial velocity and high gas pressures (P will be self-igniting in a gun because of set back of the incendiary charge of the top portion against the incendiary charge of the body portion. Such untimely igniting action is a critical fault in the ammunition.
- incendiary grenades have the drawback that, upon impact with thinwalled objects, such as the more vulnerable parts of an aircraft-wing, the grenade body does not disintegrate into fragments but will penetrate straight through the object in its initial form with minimal damaging effect.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a projectile having multiple efi'ects and which eliminates all of the above desired drawbacks.
- a projectile having multiple efiects, comprising elements for incendiary effect and fragmentary effect as well as great penetrating capacity and which at the same time may be provided with per se known tracing elements and self-destruction elements
- a characteristic feature of the invention being that the fragmentary effect is achieved by means of an explosive charge positioned behind a first and second incendiary charge, said explosive charge being detonated without any fuse means.
- Another feature of the invention resides in that the first incendiary charge portion positioned in the top portion is supported by a disc having left hand threads and a central bore through which the secondary incendiary charge is ignited. This supporting disc should be designed to stand very high G-values.
- the feature comprising the explosive charge being detonated without any fuse means is obviously advantageous because the projectile or grenade may be supplied or filled with a considerably greater quantity of incendiary charge which means that it is not necessary to reserve any space for fuse means and booster charge. In addition to the desired fragmentary efi'ect, a maximum of incendiary effect is thus achieved. It is further of substantial economic importance that this type of grenade may be detonated without any fuse means because the fuse means as such usually represents nearly 50 percent of the total costs of the grenade for small caliber ammunition.
- a projectile according to the invention comprises a top portion 1 and projectile body portion 2, each of said main portions containing an incendiary charge 3 and 4 respectively.
- the projectile body portion 2 furthermore comprises internally an explosive charge 5, a socalled self-destructing means 6 with associated detonating means 7 and a tracer means 8 with associated igniting means 9.
- the projectile is further completed rearwardly by means of a sealing disc 11 and a steel ring 12, it being understood that the tracer means andself-destructing means for certain purposes may be omitted.
- the first incendiary charge 3 comprised in the top portion 1 is maintained in position during firing of the projectile by a supporting disc 13 which by means of left hand threads has been screwed into the top portion 1.
- the supporting disc 13 has a central bore or opening 14 through which the secondary incendiary charge 4 is ignited.
- the incendiary charge 3 contained in the top portion 1 has a rearwardly supporting surface formed with a bridge construction 15 for the purpose of withstanding the shearing forces caused by setback of the charge 3 and thus prevents untimely ignition.
- the supporting disc 13 is designed and calculated to stand very high G-values of at least 150,000 without untimely ignition of the incendiary charge.
- This incendiary charge is ignited by impact on a target, the ignition being initiated through friction, shock and heat through distortion of the nose by the impact.
- the explosive charge 5 positioned in the body portion 2 directly beneath the second incendiary charge 4 is detonated without any fuse means but by means of the second incendiary charge 4 and this results in the said advantages comprising larger space for filling with incendiary charges inside the projectile besides substantially lower production costs. Furthermore, the detonation of the explosive charge 5 is delayed through the incendiary charges in such a way that the projectile also is provided with a greater piercing effect compared with explosive grenades by an appropriate choice of materials in the top portion 1 and the body portion 2 and by the fact that the total kinetic energy of the projectile is utilized contrary to the explosive grenades where the energy of the explosive is used.
- the incendiary charge above the explosive charge will provide a delay in thedetonation of the latter in such a way that the total kinetic energy of the projectile is utilized for the piercing work before the detonation and the disintegration of the projectile body.
- the projectile in the final phase of penetrating a steel plate will also partly disintegrate into fragments which will simultaneously blow or stamp out a hole having twice the size of the respective caliber.
- fragments from the steel plate will penetrate into the target and cause great damaging effect.
- the incendiary charge will not be peeled off on the front side of the target, but on the contrary will be sprayed into same together with the fragments and having full incendiary effect.
- a projectile having multiple effects comprising: an elongated casing which includes a tapered nose section anda base section for containing at least two charges disposed longitudinally behind the nose section, said base section having an open end provided with an annular penetrating shoulder of hardened material of a diameter approximating the longest diameter of the nose, said nose section being formed of a softer material than the base section and being provided with an annular sleeve of a diameter to extend within the base section to secure the two sections together; a first incendiary charge in the nose section adjacent the end thereof; a second incendiary charge disposed within the said base section back of the shoulder; a partition between said first and second incendiary charges having means therein for controlling the ignition of the second incendiary; an explosive charge in the base section immediately rearwardly of the second incendiary positioned to be detonated by said second incendiary without any separate fuse; whereby the projectile is safe during loading and firing, the incendiary material
