Summary | This proposal is follow-on efforts directed towards determining whether exothermic chemical energy released during the transit of hypervelocity long-rod aluminum penetrators trough water and target impact is intense enough to contribute to terminal effectiveness. Innovative approaches for accelerating reaction will be emphasized. The work involves hypervelocity experimentation and analyses. |
