And the bullet is full of holes !!!

71
So say the orthodox artillery after reading this article, and they will be right - indeed, the bullet turned out to be full of holes. But this is not on purpose, since the unshakable laws of physics were ordered.

I will make a reservation right away, the author has nothing to do with the subject of small weapons it does not have, one might say, a pacifist and Greenpeace in one person. The topic was only interested because the events more than fifty years ago on the pass now called the Dyatlov Pass, clearly spoke about the use of weapons of an unknown type there. The sum of known facts about the events at the Dyatlov Pass can only be explained by assuming that nine tourists were killed by high-speed bullets of small diameter. So an initial interest in the topic of small arms arose from the question of how to disperse a miniature arrow-shaped object with a diameter of about a millimeter to a speed of 10-20 km / s. Such characteristics should have had the bullet of this unknown weapon.

Of course, it can be assumed that some exotic technology such as railgun was used to disperse such a miniature bullet, but I think everything is much more prosaic, the same result can be obtained using conventional powder technologies available from the middle of the last century, or even earlier. These technologies were discussed in the article “The Principle of the Lemon Pits”, but the main question that remained unlit there was the initial launch of such a miniature bullet and the principle of its stabilization in flight.

Filling this gap, I will describe a real way to disperse a bullet on the basis of a well-known, but never used in artillery artillery technology, and moreover, I will demonstrate the implementation of this technology on the current layout.

Artillery classics - piston acceleration of the projectile

Since the time of the “King of Peas”, traditional rifle systems use the kinematic system piston-cylinder.
"Tsar Cannon" and the modern artillery system on the basis of their actions are completely similar.

Barrel rifle projectile acceleration technology has been used unchanged for about a thousand years and, by its kinematic essence, it is a piston (projectile) - cylinder (barrel) system. Energy to this system is transmitted through the combustion of gunpowder leading to a sharp increase in pressure on the bottom of the piston (projectile). Accordingly, the velocity of the projectile is proportional to the area of ​​the bottom of the projectile and the pressure in the barrel; these proportions determine the limit of the velocity of acceleration of the projectile.

So, both the unicorn of the Middle Ages, and the super-modern art system are inherently the same thing, moreover, the unhurried development of technology has closed the circle, the artillery began with a smooth-bore weapon and ends its evolutionary development again in a smooth-bore version.

But evolution, after all, is not a circle, but a spiral, so the idea of ​​an even earlier period of weapon development, the throwing dart, is used again. Rifle - from the word arrow, by the way. Here is a snapshot of what can be squeezed out of the classic barrel rifle system:

And the bullet is full of holes !!!


A snapshot of a real shot, a piercing projectile at the time of resetting the gage tabs. The barrel of this rifle system is not rifled, aerodynamic empennage is used to stabilize the flight of the projectile, in fact the artillerymen again began to use arrows, a bullet (projectile) such a core to call the tongue does not turn.

The speeds in 2-2,5 km / s are maximum even for such an advanced piston projectile acceleration technology, a further increase in speed rests on the limiting pressures maintained by the barrel of an artillery mount.

But at the disposal of modern civilization there is another technology for creating high-speed kinetic weapons, which came from even deeper antiquity.

Aerodynamic acceleration

Do not think that the author was "moved off mind" by posting a picture of a sailboat in an article on weapons.
A sailboat (clipper) is directly related to the topic under discussion.



Humankind has been using wind energy since time immemorial, and it can be used not only for the movement of such sea monsters, but also in artillery. After all, what is an explosion in essence?

This is VERY, VERY strong wind.

I did not discover the Americas here; this method has already been used in artillery since the middle of the last century. A cumulative explosion is used to disperse small objects (let's call them “bullets”) from the beginning of the last century, this is the so-called “shock core” technology, in cumulative ammunition.
Here’s how the aerodynamic principle of acceleration of a “bullet” looks like in practice:



This is a photo of the impact nucleus in flight, immediately after its departure from the gas cumulative jet (black cloud to the right), a trace of a shock wave (Mach cone) is visible on the surface.

We will call everything by its true names, the shock core, - this is a High-speed bullet, only accelerated not in the barrel, but in a stream of gases. And the cumulative charge itself is a Tankless artillery. Acceleration of the bullet is carried out using the Aerodynamic type of energy transfer.

But this technology is also used as a self-sufficient artillery system. An example is the development of the beginning of the 80 of the last century, the domestic anti-tank "mine" TM-83, with a lesion area of ​​more than 50 meters. But the modern, and again the domestic sample of such a barrel-free artillery installation:



This is an anti-helicopter "mine", the range of "spitting" cumulative charge to 180 meters. The speed of its "bullet" 3km / sec, it is very far from the theoretical limit of technology in 200km / sec, but this is the inevitable price for the accuracy of aiming in such a barrelless artillery system.
From all the above, an obvious engineering solution suggests itself; it is necessary to combine the receiver technology, with its aiming accuracy and the technology of aerodynamic acceleration of the projectile with its real potential of achieving speed in 200km / sec.

Clipper in a bottle

Nowhere to escape from the marine theme, after all, sail was invented by sailors ...

If we consider the bottle as a barrel, and the mock-up of the sailboat as a bullet, we get the artillery system we need.

Well, the wind will create a powder charge between the bottom of the bottle and the sailboat ...



With a single shot from a conventional receiver rifle installation, the gas outflow rate will reach 5-7km / sec to the limit, which is no small and such a “breeze” is enough to disperse the aerodynamic bullet. It remains to place a bullet with aerodynamic surfaces (sails) inside the barrel, and the rifle unit is ready, in the limit, which can disperse the bullet to the speed of the gas jet.

To stabilize the flight of such an aerodynamic bullet and in the barrel and what is more important in the atmosphere, it is necessary to impart a rotational motion to the bullet, but not by using rifling, as well as by aerodynamic method. This can be done using not primitive "straight" sails, but more cunning, "oblique" sails, as a result, approximately this construction will be obtained:



This is a gas turbine rotor, structurally aerodynamic bullet should be approximately the same. The products of burning gunpowder, passing through the blades, will push such a bullet forward and spin around the central axis.

By the way, efficiency (efficiency) for free-flying turbines (with a non-fixed rotation axis) approaches 80 percent, and piston systems cannot convert energy with efficiency greater than 30 percent, as they say, feel the difference.

But this is not all, while moving in the barrel the aerodynamic bullet should not touch the walls of the trunk, otherwise neither the trunk nor the bullet will remain intact, it is necessary to ensure a uniform gap between the walls of the trunk and the ends of the sailing surfaces, and the smaller, the better.

This technical problem has already been solved in completely different fields of technology, the air cushion method in the aerodynamically shaped gap between two planes is already used in aviation (ekranoplanes) and in computer technology (hard drives).



The magnetic heads of the hard drive "hover" above the surface of the disk at a distance of several microns, the airbag is created by turbulent air flow from the rapidly rotating disk. For an aerodynamic bullet, microns are a brute force, there is enough clearance in a millimeter 0,1-0,2, which is much easier to provide.

In fact, the bullet will work as an aerodynamic surface, not only the plane of the “sail”, but also its end. What form it should be to ensure self-centering in the barrel channel is well known to aerodynamics.

Such a “leaky” bullet looms, and this is not a traditional lead blank, used since the “King of Peas” in almost unchanged form, it is a product of advanced achievements of at least two scientific disciplines, gas dynamics and aerodynamics.
Things are easy, it remains only to make such an aerodynamic bullet.

And "I did it ..."

Of course, I am far from the Anglicans' masters with their small-scopes, even though I am Russian, but absolutely Lefty.
He acted in the traditional way for the Russian peasant, as in a joke, with the help of a grinder, pliers and some kind of mother ...

Aerodynamic bullets in the most primitive, but workable form are made from ordinary screws with a diameter of 4,5mm., Long 7,5 millimeters. Accordingly, an air rifle with a barrel diameter 4,5mm is used to fire such holey bullets. So far this will be enough to test the effectiveness of the method of aerodynamic acceleration of a bullet.

So in the picture in front of you are the world's first aerodynamic bullets (or aren't they the first?):



Threads play the role of aerodynamic planes, at the same time they twist a bullet around the axis of movement using the effect of "oblique sail". Air can flow freely through the threads (three full turns of the thread) and between the threads and the walls of the barrel (the real diameter of such a “holey” 4,4mm bullet.). The window for the free passage of air is a quarter of the cross section of the barrel, the bullet turned out really leaky.

Naturally, there is no balance between such a bullet, a layout ,,, - that you will take it from it ... But theoretically such a leaky bullet should fly much better than a regular lead bullet. It remains to test the theory in practice, so it was the turn of experienced shooting.

"And the experience, the son of difficult mistakes and ... .."

Further from modesty I will not continue the quotation.

Experienced shooting was made from this air rifle, it is not a rifle, the barrel is not rifled.

Crosman Recruit RCT525X


The choice of weapons is not accidental, I was looking for such a smooth-bore thing. A rifled barrel for an aerodynamic bullet is absolutely not needed and, moreover, is harmful. The low speed of the bullet and the lack of balancing in the layout leads to yawing it in the barrel, and it clings to the rifling of the barrel and begins to tumble in flight. This was verified by experience, hence the name of this section of the article.

In addition, this pump-type shotgun and the strength of the shot depends on the number of pump strokes, so that the effectiveness of aerodynamic bullets can be tested on different volumes of a gas charge.

Here are photos of shooting on an aluminum sheet 1,2mm thick, the rifle is pumped up in both cases in seven strokes, which is about a third of the maximum power of this weapon. Left standard lead bullet weighing 0,51 grams, right aerodynamic bullet:



As you can see, the usual bullet did not have enough energy to break the aluminum sheet, and the aerodynamic bullet pierced the sheet through. Comments, as they say, are superfluous.

Obviously, if the handicraft done literally on the “knee” surpasses in its characteristics factory products with centuries-old verified technology, then this is very serious. If such an aerodynamic bullet is made at the factory, with the calculated configuration parameters, balanced, made to produce a specially shaped barrel for firing, then the result will be even more impressive.

And this will be done, so in the part of aerodynamic bullets for pneumatics there will be a continuation, the main thing will be the study of accuracy of fire, there is good reason to assume that even in this “leaky” bullet will surpass the classic “piston” bullets.

But pneumatics is only a test of an idea, and if even at this primitive level a significant positive effect is achieved, what will happen if this technology is applied in powder powder systems?

Such bullets with which tourists were killed on Dyatlov's pass in the distant 1959 year will turn out ...

But from this place, please, in more detail ...

No need to be an alien, to make such an aerodynamic bullet, it could well have appeared in the last century, for example in Germany during the Second World War.

It was in Germany in the middle of the 30 of the last century that the principle of a cumulative explosion was discovered and the shock core method was used for the first time. To combine these technologies with receiver rifle systems is an obvious idea.

The simplest solution is to place an aerodynamic bullet in a conventional unitary cartridge, in which case you can count on the limit at a speed of about 10km / s. This limit is due to the burning rate of gunpowder and limiting pressures in the barrel. A further increase in the speed of the bullet is possible only by replacing the powder with a detonating explosive.

The principal difference between the flow of a chemical reaction by the detonation method (simultaneous chemical reaction over the entire volume of explosives) and combustion (gradual chemical reaction) in the possibility of focusing the pressure drop wave. It is the focusing effect of the blast wave used in the technology of cumulative explosion, which allows to accelerate the gaseous products of the explosion to speed in 200km / sec.
And this is what we need.

The only problem is that it is impossible to detonate the entire volume at once. Although the barrel is not shut up tightly by a bullet, all the energy of the explosion instantly disposed of without breaking the barrel will not work.

The detonating substance needs to be blown up in small portions, at the moment of flight past the aerodynamic bullet. Accordingly, the design of the cartridge is significantly complicated.

This is not a brass “jar” with a cap on the bottom, you can not do without clever and unobvious technologies.

Such technologies are already in use, an example is the Explosive Magnetic Generator (microwave bomb), it uses the method of controlled detonation of powerful explosives for precise crimping of magnetostrictive materials generating microwave radiation.

As a summary of the above, it can be stated that reaching the speed of a bullet in 10 km / s is quite realistic even in the classic version of a unitary cartridge equipped with an aerodynamic bullet.
But a further increase in speed will require a completely different trunk and cartridge (cartridge), in fact, the sleeve will become part of the barrel. And at the same time the sleeve will turn into a very complex engineering product.

"And in the end I will tell…",
"Love us with dirty, clean, everyone will love us ..."

Actually, to begin with, and everything, I foresee a storm of angry accusations and unsubstantiated criticism of the idea of ​​aerodynamic dispersal of a bullet.
Yes, let them say ...

In the next article there will be a video of the actual shooting of an aerodynamic bullet made not “on the knee”, but according to all the rules of aerodynamics, after all, I am a physicist.

Then the moment of truth will come.

      What is great?
      A mass of self-made steel bullet in the studio.
      A barrel shot firing a projectile from the barrel is, in my opinion, the patent of the century before last.
      Plus, the edges of the homemade craft cut through the target, while the ball is stamping, different costs of kinetic energy.
      I would make it smooth with an expanded bottom - I would get an even bigger gain.
      And if I did it with a decreasing diameter to the tail from the warhead, I would get an Israeli patent for a sub-caliber projectile from depleted uranium.

      In general, the only plus is that he is trying to think.
      Cons - invents invented:
      1. Cutting shell - a shell with a sharpened leading edge.
      2. The shot barrel.

      4. Shell with external thread.

    I will undertake to criticize a little. What has the Dyatlov Pass to do with it? What was already not attributed to ultrasound and beam weapons, etc. Further, regarding shooting, the experiment is a series and the more shots the more reliable the result, then what is the shooting distance? Bullet behavior and stopping power are important throughout the trajectory i.e. shooting must be carried out at several distances from minimum to maximum. Nevertheless, for the plus article, the idea is visible Russia has always been famous for "Lefties".

    If screws and screws are screwed with gunpowder, then this is an increase in labor productivity, but I, in the end, am an electronics engineer.
    If you wind the winding around the barrel and give the bullet a charge, you get a good hybrid, but you have to twist the dynamo before firing.

      Electric current can propagate at a speed of up to 300000 km / s. (It approaches the speed of light only in superconductors under absolutely vacuum)
      Lightnings differ not only in size, they flash in the sky at different speeds. “Slow” lightning per second covers a distance of about 200 kilometers, which means that two-kilometer lightning takes one hundredth of a second to “grow” from root to top. But in some cases, lightning can be ten times faster. With recoil, they can reach the highest speed - 140 kilometers per second; this is almost half the speed of light. And in the upper atmosphere almost reach this value, the speed of light.

      Therefore, questions arise for screws and wind.
      It is easier to place an electric charge of "turbid" polarity in a bullet, and the flight speed will increase and the friction will decrease. wink

        Not that one. A certain Gerald Bull, an American (or a Canadian, I don’t remember) worked in Iraq. In any case, neither he nor his ancestors had anything to do with Germany and the V-3 project. He worked for a long time in the USA, one of the super-tools he created still rusts on some island. But then - the Yankees covered the topic, considering it unnecessary and unpromising. Left without sponsors, Bulle shook his eyes around the world, offering his services here and there, created a number of very effective artillery systems, and eventually ended up in Iraq - having interested Saddam with his ultra-long-range weapon project. But he did not succeed in building his super-gun called Big Babylon: at first, parts of the guns ordered under the guise of details of the pipeline were confiscated in England, and a little later Bulle himself was killed by Mossad agents.

    The idea is excellent, only a small proposal, with an increase in the speed of the bullet, the air resistance begins to increase non-linearly, there is an idea that the shape of the bullet must still be of higher aerodynamic quality. For example, like the tip of a screw. Although, in my opinion, even a poker at a speed of 200 km / s will strike Abrams right through. drinks

        The speed of the cumulative jet can reach 90km / s, which can give, in the zone of contact with the barrier, a pressure of 10 ^ 5 kgf / cm². So what is proposed makes sense.

        IMHO: In addition, it is checked by fairly simple means. Even a simple modification of the existing ammunition for a smoothbore carbine in 5.45 / 7.62 calibers will allow checking the change in the characteristics of the ammunition in "home" conditions. And a bullet with such parameters and characteristics, for verification, can be made by any hunter with experience and with hands. With all this, if the "armor penetration" grows at least twice, it already makes sense to do this.

    If my memory serves me right, the Germans at the end of the war built another wunderwafl, a huge mine that served as a barrel, detonated explosives in branches, trying to disperse a shell in this way, nothing came of it .... How to implement such a principle in a barrel or in a sleeve is not entirely clear.

      With synchronization of initiation, more than three charges did not work out.
      And in Iraq, the son of a child prodigy designer, he won’t even start testing 24 charging loafs. On a modern electronic base with synchronization was much better. Managed to test the initiation of 12 charges before Iraq was bombed. It is a pity that only the main details of the trunk (oil pipeline parts with precision internal surface treatment) were confiscated either in England or Greece.

    Aerodynamic acceleration
    has no relation to the cumulative impact core. It is created in a completely different way and the shock wave acts on the element only at the moment of detonation.
    2. High-speed collisions DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING IN common with pneumatic bullets. The drummer and the target do not behave like solids.

    I highly recommend the author and those who are interested to buy and read Balaganov's book "The Action of Weapons and Ammunition". There, a whole part is devoted to high-speed collisions, calculations of various strikers and means of acceleration.

      At the beginning of the article, the author admits his incompetence:

      I will make a reservation right away, the author has nothing to do with the topic of small arms


      Of course, I’m far from the Anglitz masters with their small scope,

      Acted in the traditional way for a Russian peasant, as in a joke, -
      with the help of a grinder, pliers and some kind of mother ...


      Perhaps the author of the experiment is not strong enough in theory, or does not know how to write as a professional journalist.
      But he clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of a projectile of artisanal production.
      As lucid as in gasket advertising: these are ordinary, and this is effective.

      Maybe then evaluate this work differently, for example:
      - “Look! I graduated from a vocational school, and on a whim I made a working model.
      Let me develop a theme: not without reason because I was the best.
      I will help the guy with advice and together we will give this concept a finished look.
      Or let's make sure we're at a dead end ... "

      The man did not spare the rifle and personal time - he experimented on a topic of interest to him.
      And I decided to share the result.
      To do this, he painstakingly prepared material for a long time, edited and selected images.
      And he is advised to replace the self-tapping screw with a nail or ball. Or launch a weight into space.
      But curiosity does not burst themselves?

    Sorry, enchanting nonsense.
    And here's why: The energy of powder gases is used to disperse, agree? Those. we cannot convert more energy than there is in charge into the kinetic energy of a bullet.
    Now the question is how to transfer this energy more efficiently? Moreover, in the translational, and not rotational, direction.
    You offer a turbine. Wonderful. The turbine receives rotational energy, and? Well, your bullet will spin up, and then it will use the same blades to transfer rotational energy into translational energy by repelling the blades from the air? And what kind of friction will you not think?
    And also time. You won't believe it, but if you "fart" into a turbine, it won't even think about spinning. And you have a shot. How long will it act on the shoulder blades? What is the volume of evolved gases?

    Well, finally, think about why there is a piston in steam locomotives, although there were already turbines at the hydroelectric power plants of that time. Probably very stupid people built steam locomotives. I am silent about efficiency, Sadi Carnot nervously rolled over in his grave.

    And now a miracle shot: you compared the mass of bullets? What about the material? A steel bullet will be lighter once. And she will not spend energy on her own deformation - two. Hence the penetration ability: it gained more energy due to more acceleration due to less mass, and it was not necessary to spend it on its own deformation.

      On the basis of Tula Cartridge Plant OJSC, a limited liability company Tula Cartridge Factory - Hunter was established, which produces shot, card and bullet cartridges for smoothbore guns.
      To control the quality of manufactured cartridges, a test laboratory is equipped at the plant, equipped with the most modern equipment. Each new type of cartridges, before it reaches the consumer, passes comprehensive tests in the laboratory. The ballistic line computer not only draws pressure curves in the barrel for each shot, fixing the points of impact on the target, but also performs a statistical analysis of the parameters of the entire shot series. This ensures the selection of optimal and stable ballistic properties of the product.

    Complete nonsense began in the middle of the article, I explain:
    - All pneumatics (and the presented rifle) are rifled.
    - The penetration of a sheet is due to the hardness of the material from which the self-tapping screw is made, lead bullets have greater expansiveness and less penetration. For pneumatics, combined lead and steel bullets are also manufactured (GAMO Rocket). (the author can try, the result will be 2 broken sheets, without any sailboats there)
    - For such experiments "on the knee", it is desirable to attach a chronograph, and to record and announce the speed.
    - Where will the "accuracy" and STP of such self-tapping bullets dangling in the barrel be?

    It is necessary to have moral responsibility for the published "such" facts, assumptions and "studies"

    At the conference, with the support of Rodionov, we ridiculed, took under fire a malicious, baseless invention, the so-called "pig-barley".

    How? You do not know this word? Then I must report on his origin. This expression was launched at the conference by one of its participants. He spoke very witty. And, in particular, he told the following. Once, an inventor entered his military institution.

    - Comrade, can you tell state secrets?

    - Of course. Especially for this I’m sitting.

    The inventor leaned over and mysteriously said:

    “There are no more gases.”

    - Curious. Why?

    “Because I invented the swirling device, which reflects any gas attack.”

    The inventor showed the drawing. Imagine a machine gun. Above the barrel there is a movable cartridge, in which a huge number of propeller screws are inserted. When the enemy starts a gas attack, it is necessary to shoot from a machine gun, which is so designed that a propeller sits on the nose of each flying bullet and, rotating on the fly, creates a wind chasing gas towards the enemy.

    The inventor was asked the question:

    “Why did you call it a pig-rotary machine?”

    Followed by the answer:

    - But what about? The bullet with the screw rushing.

    The whole conference laughed.

    Well, now in order.
    In conventional small arms, the speed of a bullet is equal to the speed of expiring powder gases minus the friction and air losses. Let us assume (don’t throw bricks at me!) That the velocity of an ordinary bullet at the edge of a barrel is equal to the velocity of the outflow of gases - for simplicity of reasoning. An ordinary bullet is made in such a way as to exclude any breakthrough of gases between the bullet and the bore - this increases efficiency, accuracy and so on. What do we see in the new pool? Gap! between the barrel and the bullet! It’s the same as if we loaded a 7,62 mm cartridge into a 9 mm barrel. What do we get? Zilch. I hope you do not need to resort to integration to understand this. Further, with a direct impact on the bullet, its speed can in no way exceed the speed of the outflowing gases - this can only be when they are exposed to the bullet at an angle. Roughly speaking, it is necessary to direct the exhaust stream at the bullet sail, located at an angle to the exhaust. A simple example is a sail at an angle of 45 — the velocities of gases and bullets are equal. A sail at an angle of 30 to the axis is a speed increase factor of 1,17 ... and so on. What cosmic speeds are we talking about?

      Smaller and significantly. The velocity of the mass of gas in the barrel is equal to the velocity of the bullet only while the bullet is in the barrel. As soon as the bullet leaves the barrel like that, the rate of gas outflow from the muzzle end increases.

    3 July 2013 22: 07
    When a single shot from a conventional barrel shooting system, the flow rate of gases will in the limit reach 5-7km / s,

    The rate of gas outflow into vacuum is limited by the value of the square root (2I), where I is the enthalpy, the heat content is J / kg. The specific heat of combustion of the powder (maximum) is 5 MJ / kg, which gives us the maximum possible (theoretically) gas outflow velocity of 3162 m / s.
    Of course, it can be contrived as with cumulative shells, due to the selection of energy from the bulk of the gases, the jet is pumped, thereby sharply increasing its speed. It’s only possible only in the explosive version (otherwise the energy will be dissipated throughout the gas volume), but in this case the projectile will not withstand and at least deform.

    Does the author accidentally try to reinvent the wheel? In hunting smooth-bore weapons, turbine bullets, or tail bullets, have long been used. Bullet Mayer, Polev, Brenneke, Foster.

    EXTRACT FROM OFFICIAL REPORT TSNIITOCHMASH
    1. The proposal for the use of cartridges with sub-caliber bullets in smooth-bore hunting weapons appeared as a result of theoretical conversion studies carried out by the developers of sub-caliber ammunition of small arms and cannon weapons of the Central Scientific Research Institute (TsNIITM) of the city of Klimovsk in the Moscow Region in 1967. In the case of a successful practical solution to this problem, conventional shotguns could compete with expensive rifled weapons. The first experimental verification of the proposal was carried out on the track of the TsNIITM ballistic laboratory on twenty pieces of experimental bullets manufactured in the TsNIITM pilot production and equipped with 12-gauge folder sleeves. The accuracy of bullets was checked with the simultaneous selection of a charge. Shooting was carried out from a ballistic crash barrel with measurement of crash pressure and the initial velocity of the bullets.

    2. The first official offer of such a cartridge was the author's application No. 1136908 with a priority of 27.2.67 years, drawn up by the author on the basis of a positive test result according to claim 1. According to this application, copyright certificate No. 239074 of December 18, 1968 was issued.

    3. Further studies of sub-caliber hunting bullets were carried out at the Central Scientific Research Institute of Electronic Technology on the state budget topic NG-10-44549.

    4. The first official check of sub-caliber feathered hunting bullets in natural conditions was carried out in the Krolevets hunting farm of the Sumy region of the Ukrainian SSR on the basis of a program agreed on 28.8.1969 with the head of the Main Directorate of Hunting Management MLX UCCP and approved on 23.10.1968 by the chief engineer of the Central Research Institute of Mechanics and Informatics.

    5. Tests of various designs of sub-caliber hunting bullets equipped with 12-gauge folder sleeves for their slaughter and firing range from smoothbore guns equipped with optical sights, in particular, were also carried out in the following hunting farms:

    20.1.1969/140/XNUMX. Makhtrakh forestry of the Estonian SSR. From the first shot, a boar was killed, weight XNUMX kg.

    6.10.1969/XNUMX/XNUMX. Nalchik State Forest Hunting. One boar. Killed from the first shot.

    13.10.1969/2/1. Sumy regional administration of forestry and cooking timber. 3 moose. One from the XNUMXst, the second from the XNUMXrd shot. One roe deer from the first shot and one fox from the first shot.

    29.12.1969/XNUMX/XNUMX. In the same place. Five moose, one wild boar, two roe deer. All from the first shot.

    1.1.1970. Sosnovsk state forest-hunting enterprise of the Leningrad region. Two deer and one elk - from the first shot. One moose - from the second shot.

    26.2.1970/200,150/200. The Azov-Sivash reserve-hunting economy (Viryuchiy island). Tests on the firing range of sub-caliber bullets and slaughter. Seven deer were killed at distances of 280,160, 280, 300, XNUMX and XNUMX meters. Of these, six were killed from the first shot and one from the second.

    14.10.1970/XNUMX/XNUMX. Sumy regional administration of forestry and cooking timber. Eight Moose. Of these, seven from the first shot and one from the second.

    12.4.1970/XNUMX/XNUMX. Oka State Reserve of the Ryazan Region. Three boars. All from the first shot.

    15.3.1970/XNUMX/XNUMX. The Azov-Sivash reserved hunting estate. Five deer were killed. Of these, two - from the first shot and three - from the second shot.

    6. Hunting cartridges with a sub-caliber feathered bullet were made only at TsNIITM and only in small (no more than several dozen) batches for 12-gauge rifles. Larger batches were not manufactured, however, design work was carried out in the direction of developing new samples. The patron was named Zenith.

    Having a smoothbore and previously experimenting with various bullets I can say with confidence: nonsense! firstly, without the linings of this device that will hang like ..mo the hole in the hole will be peeled off as sticky, and secondly, at hypersonic speeds, aerodynamics are completely different than at low speeds. A purge is required with the selection of mass, center of gravity, bullet material, shooting speeds. Sometimes a bullet with a small change in any of the above variable starts to behave completely unpredictably, and the changes do not appear immediately, but starting for example with 2 seconds. flight. I can assume that even with the alignment of the plates in the bore and bringing the bullet into a more or less divine form in accordance with the laws of accuracy ballistics, it WILL NOT be! Therefore, the price of this gizmo in practical application tends to zero. Speed ​​no longer matters.

    it seems to me that the idea of ​​"drilling" the "hardening" air with a fast-rotating bullet should not work. The energy of gases is spent on the movement and rotation of the bullet: if you do not twist, the movement will increase, if you twist, the movement will decrease ... But this is how to twist, and at the same time also make it push off the air (well, or at least not notice its resistance) - in my opinion, this is from the theme of "perpetual motion machine"

Yes, penetration is increased and higher than that of a lead bullet, but the barrel is scratched. And this is without any turbines. If you shoot at 10 meters and the accuracy is not much worse.
    The author is an inquisitive person. Well done, but there is no sense at all from his work. There are no real measurements of neither energy, nor speed, nor accuracy. Everything is subjective, but this is not a science or an experiment. So...
    Is this how the men decided to check whether the iron barrel will fly or not, if air is pumped into it? Flew, so much so that the whole shop smashed.

      Well, IL-38 can also be charged with nails (especially a school one). and I feel sorry for my Diana 350M, you know. and I’m not shooting at all at 10 meters (the screw is nailed at 50 meters, but I’ll shoot further) and - only with good bullets.
      about such experiments - it’s better to read here than to pervert over your toys.

      IMHO, no more.

    mixed everything in a heap, the turbine with its efficiency pyriplel, it is necessary to be treated with author !!!!!
