Compendium of Results From Firing Different Explosively Formed Projectiles

D. McQueen

This compendium assembles the results from a series of firings utilizing different variations of Explosively Formed Projectiles (EFP'S). Variations were applied to the design of the liner, casing and explosive. Following computer numerical modelling, short listed candidates were manufactured and fired into steel witness plates. The results were then tabulated accordingly. Also used during the firing phase was Flash radiography (FXR) to study velocity and flight characteristics.
