Ukrainian-British company developed bullets piercing infantry fighting vehicles

147
Ukrainian-British company Stiletto Systems Ltd. revealed the details of the BS-13 bullet designed to equip sniper and assault rifles, reports the publication Defence Blog. The new series of ammunition from the company Stiletto Systems is designed to support tactical level operations on the battlefield. New ammunition provides for breaking through all modern body armor and light armored vehicles, including infantry fighting vehicles.

In September last year, the company Stiletto Systems held a presentation of its products to the armed forces of Ukraine. According to the company, a new series of bullets will have even greater armor penetration. So, in the course of the latest tests, the VSU tested BS-13 cartridges of 7,62 × 51 caliber mm.

Chuck BS-13


During testing, the STL-016 sniper rifle and BS-13 cartridges were used. Shooting was conducted from a distance 220 m on a sheet of bronestali brand ARMSTAL 500 20,5 mm thick. A series of three shots fired at right angles pierced through the armor plate through. In the conclusion of the expert commission of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it is stated that the new bullets manufactured by Stiletto Systems Ltd are capable of stopping Soviet-made armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles at a distance of 450 m.

Stiletto Systems - Ukrainian-British company developing ammunition and small weapon. According to its technical director Alexander Kalachev, the personnel and development are completely Ukrainian, but since in the UK it was easier to register an arms company and go through a licensing procedure, officially Stiletto Systems is considered Ukrainian-British.

            a competent question is the 308 caliber, it is 3 mm shorter than ours, there is no such combined arms weapon, and it’s more expensive than our Sovdepov weapons, and they won’t be able to remake the trunks and the crumb - very expensive hi

                    According to the Soviet TTZ, both BMP and BTR are obliged to keep at close range non-heat-strengthened bullets 7,62x54. Obliged to keep point-blank at any angle. This is a requirement of the USSR Ministry of Defense in the 1960s. Therefore, it is you who write nonsense.

                      As far as I know (I don’t remember the source) - according to the BMP-1 technical assignment, the armor was supposed to hold an armor-piercing bullet from any direction of caliber ... 7,62x51, and by no means 7,62x54.
                      In the forehead, it holds a 23mm caliber, released from 500m
                      In addition, Diagterev has a longer barrel length than a regular Kalash, so the bullet speed is greater. That is why the armor-piercing 7,62x54 from Dyagter penetrate the BMP-1 side (but not the forehead), and Kalash with the same bullets does not
                      At the expense of the same BMP-3, it already holds armor-piercing 12,7 from 100m. Such a Digger, of course, will not take.

                        Kalash’s bullets are not the same at all, because they are part of the cartridge 7,62x39 arr. 1943 (if it is the early Kalash) or 5,45x39, and they have a different design, and the initial speed is naturally lower than that of the rifle 7,62x54.

                        I’m figuring on you - “experts” who have heard something somewhere)))) Dear friend, TTZ MO is a very serious thing. And if the equipment does not correspond to him in the army, then the team of designers, technologists and directors leaves with all kagal to cut down the forest in Magadan for sabotage, wrecking and forgery of documentation and tests. It was like that in the USSR.
                        So, the NATO 7,62x51 is obviously weaker than the Soviet 7,62x54R in armor penetration. And TTZ on BMPs and armored personnel carriers was given specifically on 7,62x54R bullets fired from a machine gun. So all your “I heard somewhere” - they’re not worth a penny. But I heard that "Kalash" punches the rail. This bike is very famous.

                        Into the BMP-3 account. Boards BMP-3 are not able to hold 12,7mm. at distances up to 300m. This is a fact and a serious flaw in the armor protection of this certainly excellent machine.

                7,62 BZ (GRAU Index - 57-BZ-231) - a cartridge with an armor-piercing incendiary bullet BZ
                Мacca cartridge, g - 15,7
                Bullet weight, g - 7,6
                Bullet length, mm - 27,7
                Muzzle velocity, m / s - 720-740, 715-725 (AKM assault rifle)
                Muzzle energy of a bullet, J - 1909,4 - 2068,3 (AKM assault rifle)
                The top of the bullet is painted black with a red belt.
                The cartridge is designed to defeat lightly armored targets, ignite the fuel located behind the armor or in a thick-walled container; and to defeat manpower, located behind light armored covers at a range of up to 300 m. The cartridge was produced with a brass or bimetallic sleeve. An armor-piercing incendiary bullet consists of a steel shell coated with a tompak shell with a tompak tip, a heat-treated steel core with a lead jacket and an incendiary compound located in a lead tray. When the bullet hits the armor, the lead pan, moving by inertia forward, compresses the incendiary composition and thereby ignites it. The flame, through a hole pierced by a steel core, penetrates the reserved space and is able to ignite the fuel. An armor-piercing incendiary bullet pierces a steel helmet at a distance of 1100 m and a fragmentation-proof bulletproof vest at a distance of 1000 m. A 7 mm thick armor sheet pierces at a distance of 330 m. An inclined black and red strip is applied on cardboard packs, metal boxes and wooden boxes with ammunition.

                  By the way there is a video in YouTube where they shoot at the rail with armor-piercing incendiary and do not pierce. this is for you so a beginner's guide

              The fact is, colleagues, that in the USSR and the Russian Federation there are three guest rails P 50, P65 and P 75, the figures - the weight of 1 m of rail. The weight of a 1m rail on a narrow track is slightly different. Type - weight, of course, the neck thickness and steel grade determine the type of rail. It is not known what type of rail was fired from AKM! Earlier, under the Empire, there were lighter types of rails.

                    In the USSR, the rail gauge is established by GOSTs. Chemical Requirements steel composition, its macrostructure, therm. processing and other indicators are regulated by Dep. standards. According to current GOSTs and TU 9 types of rails are accepted.
                    Rails of types P11, P15, P18, P24 and P38 are used for narrow gauge railways. d. and recoil tracks in underground operations; P38 and P43 - for broad gauge railways. D. III and IV categories; P50 and P65 — II and I categories; P75 - in an experimental manner for especially heavy-duty highways. Until 1947, rails of types IV-a, III-a and I-a were manufactured, weighing from 30,8 to 43,6 kg, to-ry occupy about 1/5 of the length of the main network paths. e. When reconstructing a track, light-type rails are replaced by a heavier type, and this means economical. effect, since the service life of R. increases.

                I apologize, it just dawned on me now, this sniper cartridge looked the color of the varnish
                fired

                The bullet of the cartridge consists of a steel shell clad with tompak, a lead shirt, and a low-carbon steel core. Since 1986, the LPS bullet has been manufactured with a heat-strengthened steel core, which significantly increased its breakdown effect.

                Bimetal cartridge case.

                After 1970, the bullet of the cartridge does not have a bow color.

                The mass of the cartridge is 21,8 grams, the mass of the bullet is 9,6 grams, the initial velocity of the bullet is 820 m / s. [/ Quote]
                there is an analogue described in this article
                It is used to ignite flammable liquids after breaking through the armor of equipment and to destroy enemy manpower, protected by NIB, as well as being behind light armored covers at ranges up to 500 m. It was adopted by the USSR Armed Forces in 1954, first under the index 57-BZ-323, and since 1956 - 7-BZ-3.

                The bullet of the cartridge consists of a shell, steel core, lead shirt and incendiary composition. The head of the shell is painted black with a red sash.

                The early version of the bullet had a length of 36,8 mm, its back was conical. Incendiary composition was placed in front of the bullet in front of the steel core. As an incendiary composition, a mixture of aluminum and phosphorus was used, and in later versions of the bullet - termite.

                The later version of the bullet was slightly longer than the first, the steel core was moved slightly forward, and the incendiary train was placed not only in the front of the bullet, but also in the rear.

                The mass of the cartridge is 22,9 grams, the mass of the bullet is 10,4 grams, the initial velocity of the bullet is 800 m / s. [/ Quote] hi

                Earlier, under the Empire, there were lighter types of rails.

                There he is, the moment of truth. Carefully reading the comments, I was perplexed: everything seems to be right, but, damn it .... The fact is that back in 1984 and 1987, I happened to be several times (yes, we guys lived there practically) at the VVMUPP shooting range, at Fort "Gray Horse". At the end of the next firing, of course, they fled to the target field (Ha, “field” - a toe, two hundred or three hundred meters, protruding into the bay). And they "collected trophies": bullets that went into the sand and got stuck in the rail on which the targets were mounted. So: I remember exactly those that were picking from this rail. There was not a single through penetration, although they went deep. Those that picked out had a different degree of deformation, but most often came across "open petals" with protruding cores. Shooting was carried out from AK-74 (of course, 5.45). The maximum distance is 250 meters, because there, on the bay, you can’t get at all. The rail was old and rusty, perhaps even pre-war. Something like this. Damn, it turns out that the truth is not born in every dispute, sometimes it just lies somewhere, at least as a railway canvas. laughing

            7,62 BP (GRAU Index - 7N23) - cartridge with BP armor-piercing bullet
            Мacca cartridge, g - 16,3
            Мacca bullets, g - 7,9
            Bullet length, mm - 27,4
            Muzzle velocity, m / s - 725-740
            The color of the bullet is a black top.
            The cartridge was adopted in 2002. It is intended for engaging live targets in personal protective equipment (located openly or behind light shelters), fire weapons and non-armored vehicles.
            It differs from a cartridge with an ordinary PS bullet with a special armor-piercing core. In its manufacture, instead of mild steel, tool steel U12A is used. The shape of the core and the heat treatment process have changed. The rest of the bullet device is similar to a cartridge with a PS bullet.
            The new cartridge more than three times surpassed the cartridge with the PS bullet in penetration of solid obstacles. At a distance of 200 m, the armor-piercing core of the new bullet’s bullet pierces the 5 mm 2P ​​armor plate, and at 250 m the bulletproof bulletproof vest type 6B5. At the same time, the mating trajectory of the bullet of the new cartridge with the PS bullet is ensured.

            COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT.

            The bullet of the cartridge 7N23 from Saigi from a distance of 25 meters pierced the R-65 rail. The shell, of course, was lost, and the heat-strengthened core went through. Two shots, two holes. With a witness from the forum. Those. the question is closed, the prize goes to the performer - U. Alberta.

            Thus, the question "does it strike AK" can be answered by the rail - yes, it does. Serial, albeit armor-piercing, but - I emphasize - factory cartridge, from the serial Saiga.
            Let’s hope that the number of people trying to check this will now be reduced, injuries will be reduced and, thus, multi-page debates (well, a certain amount, of course) will not be wasted but will serve a good cause - increasing the amount of human knowledge

At a distance of 100 m! Therefore, about the 10 mm armor for the cartridge 7.62x51 you can still believe it, but 20 mm is the Steel 20 is the coolest wassat

    Counterquestion. And will the BMP drive up at point blank range? Or freaking from a kilometer?

    Addition to the question, where is the BMP angle of 90 in the frontal projection?

    And one more question: how do they plan to squeeze back the Lugansk cartridge plant, which this cartridge has been producing for 45 years? laughing

    Shooting was conducted from a distance of 220 m on a sheet of armored steel brand ARMSTAL 500 with a thickness of 20,5 mm. I comment as a professional in the field of such steels: ARMSTAL 500 is a Polish (noticeably worsened) clone of the Swedish HARDOX 500 (NLMK makes its clone QUARD 500 - worse than Swedish, but better than Polish). The feature is that a good armor is necessarily subject to the so-called. thermomechanical processing - it increases the bullet resistance of 20 percent. Swedes do it, but the Poles and NLMK do not. But this is not the main point: The HARDOX 500 is not designed to be bulletproof at all - it is armor for shotguns, hammer crushers, excavator buckets, etc. - it is soft against bullets (500 is Brinell hardness; HARDOX 600 should be good for bulletproof armor - although its Swedes are positioned precisely as wear-resistant steel for mining machines, etc., but do not even involve military use anywhere!)
    By the way, aren't they the Polish armored personnel carriers donated by ukram, on which, after welding, the sheets burst to a length of half a meter? There was exactly ARMSTAL 500! laughing

      And what is the impact strength of this armor?

        25 July 2017 23: 03
        20 J / cm2 at -40С (and it is not indicated, KCU or KCV). For comparison, Hardox500 has a KCV of 30 J / cm2, i.e. 1.5 times higher! But this is not the main indicator of bullet resistance - energy intensity is more important (roughly speaking, the product of ductility). More interesting is another: the manufacturer declares (http://emk24.ru/catalog/armstal_500/#product_157
        7412) that holds a regular Kalash bullet 7,62 * 39 with 30 m (i.e. 7,9 g at a speed of 695 M / s) at a right angle 13-mm ARMSTAL 500 sheet. But for a bullet of 7,62 * 54 mm with the same 30 m (10 g, speed 805 m / s) the energy is 1,7 times higher, i.e. you can expect the required thickness of 22 mm - but there is no data for getting at a right angle, but at an angle of 30 degrees. it penetrates to the normal only 10 m. and 35 degrees - 8 mm. So it is necessary to try very hard to please at a right angle! laughing

    What kind of steel is this? Is it from which new tanks are brewed and that are cracking at the seams? Well then yes it will pierce at right angles only such angles do not exist for armored vehicles, I mean before, the Germans were so late in the war with this cartridge.

      Yes, yes, the same one, those cracked armored personnel carriers were from her! laughing The Poles have decent steel - ARMSTAL 600 (although also markedly worsened clone of the Swedish HARDOX 600) - it holds the usual Kalash bullet 7,62 * 39 with 30 m (ie 7,9 g at a speed of 695 M / s) at right angles with sheet thickness 7 mm (55 kg / m2), and from the ARMSTAL 500 it holds the same bullet 13-mm sheet (100 kg / m2) (see / http-hsjsa-com-en-offer-Flat-products-
      rolling-mill-69-steel-armor-plates-armstal-197-h
      tmlprint-overload.pdf) - feel the difference! laughing This is a commodity for the countries of Africa, and of Urkaina, essno! Tsimes is also that ARMSTAL 600 is only 1,2 times more expensive than ARMSTAL500 - and since it’s almost half the weight of the armor, with the same protective properties, armor for armored personnel carriers from ARMSTAL600 will cost 1.5 times cheaper. than from ARMSTAL500 - i.e. delivery data is a banal kidalovo and wiring of suckers on the loot! fool laughing

        If you look closely, then tungsten is not needed. It gives the alloy resistance to heat. Cobalt gives strength. In general, this is not an alloy. These are carbides of titanium, tungsten, cobalt and others.
