Tandem hollow charge combating reactive armour - with shell having ignition contact layer of electrically conducting foils spaced by non-conducting film
摘要
Tandem hollow charge for action against targets having reactive armour consists of a shell contg. a main hollow charge and an initial hollow charge, with at least one distance sensor for actuation of the initial charge and a timed and detonator for the hollow charge. The shell has an ignition contact layer of perforated electrically conducting foils (15,16), between which is a spacer (17) of perforated or unperforated non-conducting film. ADVANTAGE - Prevents splinters affecting main charge detonation.
