Abstract

To deal with soldiers who are wearing the bulletproof helmet and bulletproof clothe on the modern battlefield, the design idea of the individual small caliber projectile using arrow shaft warhead damage element is put forward, and three different structures of arrow shaft type damage element are designed. The penetration performance of arrow shaft warhead damage element is calculated and analyzed through using DeMar penetration theory and the limiting penetration velocity theory of spherical fragment penetrating target plate. The results show that the arrow shaft warhead damage element penetration ability is far greater than the spherical fragment. When the diameter of the arrow shaft type damage element of homogeneous steel material is 2.5mm, the initial target velocity not be less than 336m/s. When the diameter of arrow shaft type damage element of combination of steel and aluminum materials is 2.8mm, the initial target velocity not be less than 410m/s.
