Using of Fluoropolymer Materials to Defeat Lightly Armored and Easily Vulnerable Targets

Abstract

The article deals with the possibility of increasing the damaging effects of small-caliber artillery ammunition in the fuel tanks of aircraft and helicopters. A comparison of the results of the calculation of the probability of the incendiary effect of strikers based on fluoropolymers on diesel fuel was made. The calculations were carried out using the methods of “Fragment Criterion†and “Energy Balanceâ€.
