Abstract

Bei einem Sekundärgeschoß (1) eines Tandemgefechtskopfes (4) wird angestrebt, daß das Sekundärgeschoß (1) nach dem Durchdringen einer Deckung im unmittelbaren Bereich dieser Deckung eine große Splitterwirkung erzielt. Hierzu weist das Sekundärgeschoß (1) neben der vorderen Wirkladung (13) eine hintere Wirkladung (14) auf. Die Zündung sowohl der vorderen als auch der hinteren Wirkladung (13, 14) erfolgt durch einen einzigen Zünder (12, 20). Die Zündrichtung des Zünders (12, 20) geht in Richtung der vorderen Wirkladung (13). Aufgrund einer durch den Zünder (20) zündbaren, scheibenförmigen und mit einem großen Durchmesser (33) ausgestatteten Verstärkerladung (32) sowie aufgrund von zungenförmigen Sprengstoffpolen der hinteren Wirkladung (14) ist aufgrund eines radialen, umfangsseitig langgestreckten Überzündbereiches (60) die gleichzeitige Zündung der hinteren Wirkladung (14) sichergestellt. In the case of a secondary storey (1) of a tandem warhead (4), the aim is for the secondary storey (1) to achieve a great splintering effect after penetrating a cover in the immediate area of this cover. For this purpose, the secondary storey (1) has a rear active charge (14) in addition to the front active charge (13). Both the front and the rear active charge (13, 14) are ignited by a single igniter (12, 20). The ignition direction of the igniter (12, 20) is in the direction of the front active charge (13). Because of the igniter (20) ignitable, disc-shaped and with a large diameter (33) equipped booster charge (32) and due to tongue-shaped explosive poles of the rear active charge (14) is due to a radial, elongated ignition area (60), the simultaneous ignition of the rear effective load (14) ensured.
