This paper presents small scale reverse ballistic experiments and hydrocode simulations to estimate the influence of aerodynamic heating on the terminal ballistic performance of a hypervelocity kinetic energy projectile. A 3mm diameter, L/D 10 tungsten alloy projectile was heated to temperatures up
The ballistic performance of 17 penetrator materials, representing 5 distinct steel alloys treated to various hardnesses along with one tungsten alloy, has been investigated. Residual lengths and velocities, as well as the ballistic limit velocities, were determined experimentally for each of the al
