High-Velocity Impacts of Pyrophoric Alloy Fragments on Thin Armour Steel Plates

High-Velocity Impacts of Pyrophoric Alloy Fragments on Thin Armour Steel Plates

The terminal ballistics effects of Intermetallic Reactive Materials (IRM) fragments have been the object of intense research in recent years. IRM fragments flying at velocities up to 2000 m/s represent a realistic threat in modern warfare scenarios as these materials are substituting conventional so...
