Fragment tests after MIL-STD 2105 B
Explosively formed projectiles (EFP) charges with 16g liner mass will be very suitable for the fragment impact tests of the MIL-STD-2105 B. They achieve the required velocity of 2530 m/s with about 80 g HE. 3 to 5 EFP generators can be fired simultaneously with less than +/- 1 mus jitter or with any intended time differences. The fragments can be very accurately aimed to the wanted hit position on the test item. These low cost devices do not result in cubic fragments with 12.6mm side length; they are hemispherically shaped. However, depending on side-on, edge-on or tip-on impacts, cubic fragments have more than a factor of 2 threshold velocity differences. Therefore much more reliable results with a spherical or hemispherical fragment shape on the impact will be achieved.
