    摘要: The present invention provides a subsonic ammunition comprising: a primer insert comprises a top surface opposite a bottom surface, a substantially cylindrical coupling element extending away from the bottom surface forming, a primer recess in the top surface that extends toward the bottom surface, a primer flash aperture positioned in the primer recess to extend through the bottom surface, a flash aperture groove in the primer recess that extends circumferentially about the primer flash aperture, and a flange that extends circumferentially about an outer edge of the top surface; a polymeric casing body comprising a generally cylindrical hollow polymer body molded over the substantially cylindrical coupling element, into the primer flash aperture and into the flash aperture groove to form a flash hole and extending toward a mid-body coupling joint; a nose comprising a projectile aperture that extends to a neck connected to a shoulder that transitions from the projectile aperture to a nose coupler, wherein the nose coupler is connected to the mid-body coupling joint; a propellant chamber formed between the projectile aperture and the primer flash aperture; and wherein the generally cylindrical hollow polymer body comprises a thickened wall that reduce the internal volume of the propellant chamber by at least 10%, wherein the thickened wall comprises a first passage comprising a first passage comprising a first aperture having a first diameter about the diameter of the flash hole that extends to a first top surface and a second passage that extends from the first top surface toward the neck, wherein the second passage has a second diameter about the size of the projectile aperture; a primer fitted in the primer pocket; a propellant disposed in the propellant chamber; and a projectile positioned in the projectile aperture.

    摘要: Shock resistant mounting structures for fuze systems. The shock resistant mounting structures may comprise: a shock resistant base cap and a shock resistant washer. The shock resistant base cap may comprise a circular cap housing and a plurality of first cripple studs disposed within the circular cap housing. The circular cap housing may be configured to engage a flange end of a fuze and may be adapted to snugly fit within a fuze well. The shock resistant washer may comprise a ring-shaped housing and one or more second cripple studs radially disposed within the ring-shaped housing. The ring-shaped housing may have a center opening adapted to engage a fuze body. When installed, the shock resistant base cap and shock resistant washer may be disposed within the fuze well and may minimize or divert shock loading energy from entering a fuze.

    摘要: A guiding kit for guiding a projectile to a target comprises a front part and a rear part. The front part and the rear part are rotatably connected to each other to enable relative rotation about a common central longitudinal axis of rotation. The front part comprises a front transceiver (T/X) unit that is disposed next to the rear end of the front part and coinciding with the longitudinal central axis of rotation and adapted to transmit signals towards the rear part. A rear transceiver unit is disposed against the front transceiver unit and adapted to communicate with front transceiver unit when the front part and the rear part are rotating with respect to each other.

    摘要: Aspects of the disclosure relate to terminating flight of a balloon that may include separating a connection between a balloon envelope and a payload of the balloon. In one example, a payload separation apparatus includes a first shaft configured to attach to the envelope, a second shaft configured to attach to the payload, a pair of arms, and a bracket arranged to secure the pair of arms to the first shaft. In another example, a system includes a flight termination assembly having a cutting edge configured to cut an opening in the envelope and a payload separation apparatus. The apparatus includes a first shaft configured to attach to the envelope, a second shaft configured to attach to the payload, a pair of arms, and a bracket configured to secure the pair of arms to the first shaft. The system also includes a controller configured to activate the cutting edge.

    摘要: An explosive matrix assembly of the present disclosure has a single detonating cord formed into a grid, and the grid has a first plurality of detonating cord portions lying in a first plane and a second plurality of detonating cord portions lying in a second plane and the first plurality of detonating cord portions perpendicularly overlay the second plurality of detonating portions, wherein the overlay creates a plurality of crossings between the first plurality of detonating cord portions and the second plurality of detonating cord portions. Additionally, the explosive matrix assembly has one or more point explosives coupled to the crossings for initiation of an explosion.
