Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a penetrator for a projectile, in particular a sub-caliber kinetic energy projectile, having a terminal-ballistic body for attacking armored targets, in particular tanks.

[0002] The invention also relates to the use of a penetrator for attacking armored targets, in particular tanks. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a projectile equipped with a sabot and a penetrator for attacking armored targets. Finally, the invention relates to a cartridge case and a cartridge ammunition containing such a projectile. [Background technology]

[0003] Penetrators can be used to create sub-caliber kinetic energy projectiles that achieve their effect through kinetic energy. Such projectiles are typically fired by tanks or artillery with larger caliber guns directly at targets.

[0004] A penetrator of the above type is known from DE 10 2019 121 984 A1. This penetrator has an outer body with a hollow cross section and an internally arranged core. This allows the penetrator to be made with a high bending stiffness without increasing the penetrator weight, as for example in the applicant's DM53 or DM63 designs. However, this penetrator is still not sufficiently adapted to impart electrical properties. There is therefore room for optimization. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] DE10 2019 121 984 A1 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved penetrator compared to the prior art. In particular, it is desirable to be able to quickly and efficiently form channels in the penetrator for passing electrical or electronic circuits through the penetrator. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] This object of the invention is achieved by a penetrator having the features of claim 1.

[0008] The penetrator is designed and / or intended for a projectile, in particular for a sub-caliber kinetic energy projectile. The penetrator has a terminal ballistic or penetrator body for attacking an armored target. The body is formed with a bore, in particular in the form of a deep hole, which runs along or parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the body over the entire length or almost the entire length of the body. One or more precisely matching inserts are inserted into the hole. The insert or inserts each have a through-opening for guiding an electric or electronic line, which runs along or parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the insert. The electric or electronic line can be arranged in the through-opening directly (the electric or electronic line is arranged directly in the through-opening) or indirectly (another element for guiding the electric or electronic line is arranged in the through-opening).

[0009] This design allows easy formation of relatively thin continuous channels (through openings) for electrical or electronic lines, even if the penetrator or body is made of high-strength tungsten heavy metal (WSM). This advantageously provides a modern penetrator ("smart penetrator") that can have electrical properties. By locating the lines in the through openings of the insert, the lines are largely protected from environmental influences. This significantly reduces the risk of the lines being destroyed, for example by explosives during environmental testing. By forming relatively thin through openings in the insert, problems (wear, precision) that arise when forming long, relatively thin holes directly in the penetrator can be avoided. The properties of the penetrator can be adapted using one or more inserts (multifunctional base penetrator).

[0010] The above-mentioned lines may be signal lines. The lines may be formed as cables, for example, the lines may have one or more strands, each having an insulating layer, optionally with a sheath surrounding the entire strands.

[0011] The penetrator or body (penetrator body) may be formed of high strength tungsten heavy metal (WSM). Regardless, the penetrator may have a length of, for example, 100 to 1000 millimeters.

[0012] The hole formed in the body may have a diameter greater than 4 millimeters, but preferably has a diameter significantly greater than 10 millimeters. The outer wall remaining in the body after the hole is formed has a residual wall thickness of at least 1 millimeter.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the insert can be formed as an inner tube that runs the entire length of the hole. This contributes to a penetrator design with fewer parts. The inner tube is arranged in the body or penetrator body, with the outer periphery of the inner tube contacting the inner periphery of the hole in the body. The inner tube can be formed as a drawn tube, with the through opening also being formed by "drawing". The inner tube can in particular be made of steel. The inner tube can have a relatively high elasticity compared to the penetrator body.

[0014] If the hole extends over substantially the entire length of the body, it is preferred to provide a further hole following said hole. The further hole has a smaller diameter than the first hole (for receiving at least one insert), and together they form a channel that passes completely through the body. The first hole for receiving the insert is thus formed as a blind hole, and the bottom of the blind hole forms a stop for the insert. This makes it easier to position the insert in the hole. Furthermore, it prevents the insert from falling to the bottom of the hole. In other words, this is a "partially enlarged hole", and one or more inserts can be or are located in the "enlarged part" (first hole). Electrical or electronic circuits that run through the further hole and the through opening of the insert can be located in the "non-enlarged part" (further hole).

[0015] As insert parts, expediently at least two cylinder blocks can be provided, which are arranged adjacent to the bores of the main body or the penetrator body. The cylinder blocks are in contact with each other and the through openings of the cylinder blocks are aligned with each other. The aligned through openings form channel portions for the electrical or electronic lines. Since the cylinder blocks are short compared to the length of the penetrator body, through openings can be easily formed in each of these cylinder blocks, for example by drilling, for guiding the electrical or electronic lines (the through openings can be formed as holes in the respective cylinder blocks).

[0016] The cylinder blocks may each be formed as a vertical cylindrical cylinder with a central through opening for guiding electrical or electronic lines. The cylinder blocks may each have a length of 5 to 50 millimeters.

[0017] Preferably, the cylinder blocks can each be made from the same material. This allows practically identical mechanical behavior of the cylinder blocks to be achieved. Furthermore, it simplifies the procurement of the cylinder blocks (only one material is needed) and simplifies the installation of the cylinder blocks (the order of the cylinder blocks may not matter).

[0018] There is also the option for each of the cylinder blocks to have the same height along the central longitudinal direction (the cylinder blocks are identical in size). This also contributes to consistent mechanical behavior of the cylinder blocks. Identical cylinder block dimensions also simplify manufacturing.

[0019] Alternatively, the cylinder blocks can each be made of different materials, so that the mechanical behavior of the cylinder blocks can be changed by selecting a particular material, for example by inserting cylinder blocks made of different materials along the bore or along the penetrator body.

[0020] There is also the option for the cylinder block to have different lengths along the central longitudinal direction. By adjusting the height, the mechanical behavior of the cylinder block can be specifically changed.

[0021] Advantageously, the cylinder block may be made of the same material as the penetrator body, or of a different material. A design in which the cylinder block and the penetrator body are made of the same material is preferred because the mechanical behavior of the cylinder block and the penetrator is relatively uniform. It also simplifies material procurement. The terminal ballistic behavior of the penetrator may be influenced by a design in which the cylinder block and the penetrator are made of different materials, for example by fragmentation effects if the cylinder block is made of a material with a lower specific gravity compared to the penetrator body.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, a threaded pin is inserted into the through-opening of the cylinder block, the threaded pin passing through the cylinder block and having a hollow cross-section (perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the threaded pin). The threaded pin can be used to center the cylinder block. This can improve the terminal ballistic performance. Furthermore, electrical or electronic circuits can be guided through the hollow cross-section of the threaded pin (the internal space is hollow and the end faces are respectively open). The circuits are therefore not directly arranged in the through-opening, but are indirectly located, i.e. by placing the circuits in the threaded pin, which is further placed in one or more through-openings of the cylinder block. The through-openings of the cylinder block through which the threaded pins pass may each have an internal thread corresponding to the external thread of the threaded pin.

[0023] In an advantageous manner, of at least two cylinder blocks arranged directly adjacent to each other inside the bore, a first cylinder block has a protrusion protruding from one end face and a second cylinder block has a recess in its end face corresponding to said protrusion, said protrusion being inserted or fitted into said recess at its end facing the first cylinder block, so that the cylinder blocks can be centered and an improvement in terminal ballistic performance can be achieved. Not only the two cylinder blocks, but also several or, if necessary, all cylinder blocks arranged in the penetrator bore can be provided with protrusions and / or recesses, so that an additional centering can be achieved and a further improvement in terminal ballistic performance can be achieved.

[0024] The first and second cylinder blocks may conveniently each have a protrusion protruding from the end face at one end and a recess corresponding to said protrusion on the end face at the other end. This means that each of the first and second cylinder blocks has a protrusion and a recess. This allows further centering and improved ballistic performance to be achieved. The first and second cylinder blocks may be of the same design, which simplifies production. There is also the option that not only two but several or, if necessary, all cylinder blocks arranged in the bore of the penetrator body each have a protrusion at one end and a recess corresponding to said protrusion at the other end. There is also the option that each of the cylinder blocks arranged at the end of the bore has a protrusion or a recess only at one end and has a flat terminal surface at each end.

[0025] In particular, the protrusion and the recess may each be disk-shaped or conical. In other words, the protrusion and the recess may each have a disk-shaped or conical shape. In a disk-shaped design, the protrusion may protrude from the center of the end face of the cylinder block, and the outer diameter of said protrusion may be smaller than the outer diameter of said cylinder block. In a conical design, the protrusion may protrude from the center of the end face of the cylinder block, and the conical contour of said protrusion may taper conically from the outer periphery towards the free end of the cylinder block. Here again, the recess may correspond to the (conical) protrusion, such that the protrusion is inserted and fitted into the recess.

[0026] Alternatively, the protrusion can be designed as an end-face profiling with a certain profile on the end face, and the recess can be designed as an end-face counter profiling corresponding to the profile. The centering of the cylinder block can also be achieved here, which can improve the terminal ballistic performance. The machining effort and material weakening in the resulting cylinder block are relatively low. For example, the profile can have a concentric groove and the counter profile can have a corresponding concentric groove.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the bore has an internal thread and at least one cylinder block may have (on the outer periphery or side) an external thread that corresponds to the internal thread. This allows for stable positioning and proper centering of the cylinder block inside the bore of the penetrator body, which contributes to improved terminal ballistic performance. There is also the option for the internal thread of the penetrator bore to be continuous. Several, or possibly all, cylinder blocks may have an external thread that threads into the bore.

[0028] The object stated at the outset is also achieved by attacking an armored target, in particular a tank, using a penetrator having one or more of the above-mentioned aspects. With regard to the advantages, see the relevant comments made in this respect for the penetrator. With regard to further design, the measures described in connection with the penetrator and / or the measures described below can be used.

[0029] The above-mentioned object is also achieved by a projectile comprising a sabot, a tail unit and a penetrator having one or more of the above-mentioned aspects. Regarding the advantages, see the relevant comments made in this regard for the penetrator. Further designs may use the measures described in connection with the penetrator and / or the measures described below.

[0030] The above-mentioned object is also achieved by a cartridge ammunition comprising the projectile and the cartridge case described above. As regards the advantages, see the relevant comments made in this respect regarding the penetrator. As regards further design, the measures described in relation to the penetrator and those described below can be used.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, electrical or electronic lines are guided from the bottom of the cartridge to the top of the cartridge, which allows the penetrator or cartridge charge to have electrical or electronic properties. The lines are guided through through-openings formed in the insert or cylinder block, and, if necessary, through further holes in the cylinder block. The lines can be formed as described above.

[0032] The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the drawings, in which identical or functionally identical elements are labeled with the same reference numbers, where appropriate only once. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0034] 1 shows a schematic side view of a penetrator generally designated by the reference numeral 10. The penetrator 10 is designed for a projectile 100 having a tail unit 102.

[0035] The penetrator 10 has a terminal ballistic or penetrator body 12 for attacking an armored target (not shown). The central longitudinal axis of the body 12 is indicated by reference numeral 14. The body 12 has a bore 16 formed therein, which in this example extends along the central longitudinal axis 14 of the body 12 substantially the entire length of the body 14 (see FIG. 2a). The bore 16 is formed by a boring tool 18 (shown only diagrammatically). In an alternative embodiment, the bore 16 may extend the entire length of the body 12, i.e., completely through the body 12 (indicated by dashed line 20).

[0036] At least one precisely-matching insert 22 is inserted into the hole 16 (see FIG. 2b). In this example, the insert 22 has a through opening 24 extending along a central longitudinal axis 14' and is used to guide electrical or electronic lines 26 (see FIG. 2c).

[0037] In this example, four inserts 22 are inserted into the holes 16 (see figures 2b and 2c). In this example, the lines 26 pass directly through the through openings 24 of the inserts 22 and can be designed as described above.

[0038] In this example, the hole 16 extends over almost the entire length of the body 12 (see figures 2a-2c). After the hole 16 there is a further hole 28, which has a smaller diameter than the hole 16. Together the hole 16 and the further hole 28 form a channel (with different diameters) completely through the body 12 (see figure 2a). In this example the diameter of the further hole 28 is such that the wire 26 can pass through said further hole, since the wire 26 extends through the through opening 24 of the insert 22 and through the further hole 28.

[0039] Four cylinder blocks 30 are provided as insert parts 22, which are arranged one after the other in the bore 16 so that the cylinder blocks 30 are in contact with one another and the through openings 24 of the cylinder blocks 30 are aligned with one another. The through openings 24 thus form channel portions aligned with the further bores 28, so that the lines 26 can be guided through said channels in the body 12.

[0040] In this example, the cylinder blocks 30 are each formed of the same material and have the same height along the central longitudinal direction 14'. As already mentioned above, it is contemplated that the cylinder blocks may be formed of different materials and / or have different heights along the central longitudinal direction 14'. It has also been discussed that the cylinder blocks 30 may be formed of the same material as the body 12 of the penetrator 10 or a different material.

[0041] Figure 3 shows an embodiment of the penetrator 10, which corresponds substantially to the embodiment described in Figures 1 and 2. To avoid repetition, reference is made to the description of said embodiment.

[0042] In this embodiment, a central alignment of the cylinder block 30 arranged in the bore 16 is performed. For this purpose, a matching threaded pin 32 is inserted into the through opening 24 of the cylinder block 30. The threaded pin 32 passes through the cylinder block 30 and has a hollow cross section with a hollow internal space 33 (perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the threaded pin 32). The hollow internal space 33 passes completely through the threaded pin 32, which is open at both ends. The wire 26 is guided through the hollow internal space 33 and through the further bore 28. The wire 26 is therefore accommodated in the threaded pin 32 and is therefore indirectly arranged in the through opening 24 of the cylinder block 30.

[0043] Figure 4 shows a further embodiment of a penetrator 10, which corresponds substantially to the embodiment described with reference to figures 1 and 2. To avoid repetition, reference is made to the description of said embodiment.

[0044] Of the at least two cylinder blocks 30 arranged immediately adjacent to each other in the bore 16, a first cylinder block 30' has at one end 34 a projection 36 protruding from its end face, and a second cylinder block 30'' has at its end 38 facing the first cylinder block 30' a recess 40 in its end face corresponding to the projection 36, the projection 36 being inserted into the recess 40 (illustrated only diagrammatically). In this example, the projection 36 is formed as a profile on the end face. The recess 40 is formed as a counter profile on the end face corresponding to said profile. The profile and the counter profile can be formed as described above.

[0045] Alternatively, or in addition, the bore 16 may have an internal thread 17 and at least one cylinder block 30 ″″ has an external thread 31 that corresponds to the internal thread 17 .

[0046] Figure 5 shows a further embodiment of a penetrator 10, which corresponds substantially to the embodiment described with reference to figures 1 and 2. To avoid repetition, reference is made to the description of said embodiment.

[0047] Again, of the at least two cylinder blocks 30 arranged immediately adjacent to each other within the bore 16, a first cylinder block 30' has a projection 36 protruding from an end face at one end 34, and a second cylinder block 30'' has a recess 40 in its end face corresponding to the projection 36 at an end 38 facing the first cylinder block 30', and the projection 36 is inserted into the recess 40.

[0048] In this example, the first cylinder block 30' and the second cylinder block 30" each have a projection 36 protruding from an end face at one end 34 and a recess 40 in the end face corresponding to the projection 36 at the other end 38 (for clarity, reference numbers are designated only once in FIG. 5).

[0049] The projection 36 and the recess 40 each have a disk-like shape. The projection 36 protrudes from the center of the end face of the cylinder blocks 30', 30", and the outer diameter of the projection 36 is smaller than the outer diameter of the cylinder blocks 30', 30". The recess 40 is designed to accommodate the (disk-shaped) projection 36, and the projection 36 is inserted and fitted into the recess 40.

[0050] The cylinder block 30 located at the end of the hole 16 may have no recess (the cylinder block 30 at the leftmost side of the hole 16 in FIG. 5) or no protrusion (the cylinder block 30 at the rightmost side of the hole 16 in FIG. 5).

[0051] Figure 6 shows a further embodiment of a penetrator 10, which corresponds substantially to the embodiment described with reference to figures 1 and 2. To avoid repetition, reference is made to the description of said embodiment.

[0052] Again, of the at least two cylinder blocks 30 arranged immediately adjacent to each other within the bore 16, a first cylinder block 30' has a projection 36 protruding from an end face at one end 34, and a second cylinder block 30'' has a recess 40 in its end face corresponding to the projection 36 at an end 38 facing the first cylinder block 30', and the projection 36 is inserted into the recess 40.

[0053] In this example, the first cylinder block 30' and the second cylinder block 30" each have a projection 36 protruding from an end face at one end 34 and a recess 40 in the end face corresponding to the projection 36 at the other end 38 (for clarity, the reference numerals are designated only once). The projection 36 and the recess 40 each have a conical shape. The projection 36 protrudes from the center of each end face of the cylinder blocks 30', 30", and the conical contour 37 narrows conically from the outer periphery of the cylinder block 30 towards the free end of the projection 36. The recess 40 corresponds to the conical projection 36, and the projection 36 is inserted into the recess 40 in a snap fit.

[0054] It is possible to choose for the cylinder block 30 located at the end of the hole 16 to have no recess (the cylinder block 30 at the leftmost side of the hole 16 in FIG. 6) or to have no protrusion (the cylinder block 30 at the rightmost side of the hole 16 in FIG. 6).

[0055] FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of the penetrator 10 having only one insert 22 .

[0056] The penetrator 10 also includes a terminal ballistic or penetrator body 12 for attacking an armored target (not shown). The central longitudinal axis of the body 12 is indicated by reference numeral 14. The body 12 has a bore 16 formed therein, which in this example extends along the central longitudinal axis 14 of the body 12, i.e., substantially the entire length of the body 14. The bore 16 is formed using a boring tool (not shown). In other embodiments, the bore 16 may extend the entire length of the body 12, i.e., completely through the body 12 (indicated by dashed line 20).

[0057] A precisely matching insert 22 is inserted into the bore 16 and, in this example, extends along a central longitudinal axis 14' of the insert 22 and has a through opening 24 for passing an electrical or electronic circuit 26 therethrough.

[0058] In this example, the insert 22 is designed as an inner tube 50 that extends over the entire length of the bore. The inner tube 50 is arranged in the body 12, with the outer periphery 52 of the inner tube 50 abutting the inner periphery 19 of the bore 16 in the body 12. The inner tube can in particular be made of steel.

[0059] In this example, the hole 16 extends over substantially the entire length of the body 12. The hole 16 is followed by a further hole 28, which has a smaller diameter than the hole 16. The further hole 28 and the through opening 24 of the insert 22 are aligned with each other. The line 26 is guided through the through opening 24 and the further hole 28. [Explanation of symbols]
