摘要:
The invention relates to a hand grenade (1) with an active body (3) containing an active charge (2), and with an ignition device (4) that acts on a detonator (12) to ignite the active charge (2). In order to achieve this feature, after the hand grenade (1) has been thrown the ignition can be triggered without delay if the tactical situation requires it, and no danger arises for the shooter if the hand grenade (1) with the safety device released is dropped accidentally. The invention pertains to an electronic ignition system composed of an ignition trigger (6) and a fuze (8) used as the ignition device (4), whereby the ignition trigger (6) remains with the shooter when the hand grenade (1) is thrown and the hand grenade (1) can be ignited by wireless only when the shooter activates an ignition trigger element (11) of the ignition trigger (6).

A method and apparatus for defending against airborne assault ammunition. The assault ammunition is located with at least one position-locating device. The flight path of the assault ammunition is iteratively calculated using the determined ballistic coefficient of the assault ammunition. A firing control solution is determined for firing a fragmentation-type defense ammunition, which is fired with a large-caliber weapon, especially one having a caliber of at least 76 mm. A fuse of the defense ammunition is set after the firing and/or the defense ammunition is remotely detonated, and after the firing the defense ammunition is ignited or remotely ignited at an ignition time point TZ. Alternatively, the ignition of the defense ammunition is initiated by a proximity igniter disposed in the defense ammunition.

A unit is described that is configured to control detonation of a munition such that the munition is detonated at a desired altitude. The unit includes a radar transmitter, a radar receiver that includes a radar range gate, and a sequencer. The sequencer is configured to receive a detonation altitude and set the range gate based on the received detonation altitude. The unit is also configured to output a detonation signal when radar return pulses received by the receiver aligned with gate delay pulses from the range gate.

A wireless detonator is disclosed that includes an antenna for receiving microwaves, a detonator provided with a heating element, and a transmission circuit. The heating element in the detonator is heated by the energy of the microwaves. The transmission circuit transmits the microwave energy from the antenna directly to the heating element. The antenna has a relative gain of 0 to 20 dB in the frequency band of the microwaves. The absolute value of the reactance component in the radiation impedance of the antenna is at most 50% of the pure resistance component of that impedance. The absolute value of the reactance component in the impedance of the heating element is at most 50% of the pure resistance component of that impedance. The pure resistance components of the radiation impedance of the antenna and of the impedance of the heating element are in a range of 70 to 130% of the characteristic impedance of the transmission circuit.

An electronic, digital, time fuze is disclosed having a counter which may be initially preset mechanically before flight, and which may subsequently be changed during a predetermined interval during flight, by a radar command link. Several mechanical presetting mechanisms for the counter are also disclosed.

A capsule is configured to have the outward appearance of a cartridge for a firearm and the capsule is designed to release a toxic agent when struck by the firing pin of the firearm. The capsule includes a casing; a bullet shaped container; a toxic agent, and a cup. The casing is made to fit within a firing chamber of the firearm. A bullet-shaped container holds the toxic agent under pressure. The container fits within the casing to give an outward appearance of an ordinary bullet in a regular cartridge for that firearm. The cup gives the outward appearance of a primer cup. Once hit by the firing pin of the firearm, the cup breaks, releasing the toxic agent. A primer and remote radio-frequency activator may also be used to release the toxic agent.

With typical ordnance systems, for example, grenades, a user must decide to explode the ordnance before the actual device is thrown. However, in many situations, it can be useful to be able to throw an ordnance system and make a decision to explode the device after it has landed. The present invention comprises a combined reconnaissance and ordnance device. The present invention is capable of real time acquisition of data, for example, digital still images, or video and audio data. The present invention also comprises a two way communications ability. By acquiring and then transmitting data to a remote console, the present invention allows a user to observe a given situation. After observing the environment surrounding the ordnance system, a user can determine whether or not to explode the ordnance system.

The controlled electromagnetic induction detonation system for initiation of a detonatable material system includes an automated radio charge (ARCH) module connectable to an electric detonator, a transducer module for providing operational power by electromagnetic induction to the ARCH module, and a remote controller for sending instructions to the transducer module from a location remote from the detonator. Upon completion of an arming sequence, the transducer module generates an electromagnetic field which is picked up by a coil in the ARCH module and used to power the ARCH module and provide a detonation current for the detonator. The transducer module or at least a coil thereof which produces the electromagnetic field is supported on or in a stemming bar which in turn acts as a core of an electromagnet confining the magnetic flux for pick up by the ARCH module. Multilevel access control and interlock systems operate between the remote controller, transducer unit and the ARCH module to reduce the likelihood of unintentional initiation of the detonator.
