金属风暴武器技术发展综述

金属风暴武器技术是采用弹丸叠装技术和电子点火技术的新型发射技术,具有射速高、火力强大、极高的火力质量比等特点。本文较为全面地论述了金属风暴武器技术的原理、各个方面的发展及改装情况,包括发射药密封、多发射药、点火与不点火排除、现场装弹、大口径武器发射及普通榴弹与可叠装弹丸改装等专利技术。采用这些技术可以解决发射药的有效密封与低成本密封、弹丸初速度的提高与改变、可靠点火与低成本点火、现场再装弹、大口径武器发射及低成本改装等问题。

Development survey of Metal Storm weapon technology

Metal Storm weapon technology is a new firing technology utilising the electronically fired stacked ammunition system with characteristics of high rate,high volume of firepower,ultimate ratio of firepower to mass and the like.This paper summarizes the principle,developments of every aspect and modifications of Metal Storm weapon technology,which includes a variety of patent technologies such as propellant sealing,multiple propellants,firing and minimising misfiring,field loading,firing of large caliber weapon as well as modification of tube launched grenade and stackable projectile.Utilising above technologies,problems such as effective sealing or low-cost sealing of propellant,increasing or varying muzzle velocity of projectile,reliable firing or low-cost firing,field reloading,firing of large caliber weapon,and low-cost modifications would respectively settled.
