To study the jet penetration capability of shaped charge warhead of guided ammunition, a variable cone angle-shaped charge liner was designed. LS-DYNA software is used to simulate the penetration capability of shaped charge warhead with three different metal materials (copper, steel, and aluminum). Numerical simulation results show that the velocity of the shaped charge jet formed by the three kinds of materials is v aluminum > v copper > v steel , and the residual velocity after penetration is V steel > V aluminum > V copper , the time when the jet starts to break is tcopper > tsteel > taluminum, and the penetration completion time is Tcopper < Taluminum < Tsteel; therefore, according to the numerical simulation results, copper was selected as the liner material, and the principle prototype is made for the experiment. The results of numerical simulation and experiment show that the shaped charge warhead with copper shaped charge liner has good penetration ability and after-effect damage ability to steel target after penetrating the guidance section, steering gear section, and control section.

In this work, the shaped charge jet formation depends on different parameters which can has effect on jet behavior such as jet velocity, breakup and penetration. Jet radius or liner thickness, shell thickness, liner material density, α angle and stand-off distance are evaluated in purpose to investigate their effect on performance of shaped charge jet velocity and jet breakup phenomena, also we investigate the effect of stand-off distance on shaped charge jet penetration into steel target. We also studied the performance of some protective shields materials in order to assure more protection for vehicle structure against shaped charge jet penetration. For that, different materials were used as armors such as: kevlar epoxy, polyethylene, glass epoxy, steel-1006 and Al2O3 ceramic. These protective shields were evaluated in order to show their performance against shaped charge penetration into target. To do so, adopted explicit dynamic analyzing program Autodyn basing on finite element were used to simulate shaped charge jet formation and penetration. Autodyn-2D simulationshighlight the efficiency of our work comparing with the experiments done in literature and Birkhoff’s theory. In other terms, increasing in shell thickness, alpha angle and liner densityenhance jet breakup time, protective shields layered armor of steel-1006, steel 1006 with polyethylene and steel-1006 with Al2O3ceramic give more protection for structure against shaped charge jet penetration comparing with others armors.

Annular shaped charge can efficiently create large penetration diameter, which can solve the problem of small penetration diameter of a traditional shaped charge, and thus meeting the requirements of large penetration diameter in some specific situations. In this paper, the influence of five kinds shell structures, i.e. no shell, aluminum shell with thickness of 2.0 mm and steel shell with thickness of 2.0 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.0 mm, on bore-center annular shaped charges (BCASCs) formation and penetrating steel targets was investigated by numerical simulations and experiments. The numerical simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results. The results showed that, from no shell to aluminum shell of 2.0 mm and then to steel shell of 2.0 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.0 mm for BCASCs, the diameter and radial velocity of projectile head decrease, the axial velocity of BCASC projectiles increases gradually, the penetration diameter of the targets decreases, and the penetration depth increases. The penetration diameter caused by the BCASC with no shell is the largest, being 116.0 mm (1.16D), D is the charge diameter. The penetration depth caused by the BCASC with steel shell of 4.0 mm thickness is the deepest, being 76.4 mm (0.76D).

In guided munitions, the shaped charge jet (SCJ) warhead is located behind the simulation compartment (including the control cabin, the steering gear cabin, and the guidance cabin). Therefore, the order of penetration of the SCJ is the simulation cabin and the target. To study the penetration performance of the SCJ to the target plate, the numerical simulation method is used to study the penetration performance of the designed warhead for the steel target at different standoffs, and the depth of penetration (DOP) at the best standoff is obtained, that is, the DOP of the steel target is about 128 mm. Additionally, the penetration performance of the SCJ warhead to target is studied by numerical simulation and experimental verification. Numerical simulation and experimental results show that the DOP of the SCJ warhead to the steel target is 50 mm without the simulation cabin, and about 30 mm with the simulation cabin. The results show that the penetration performance of SCJ is greatly weakened under the condition of non-optimal standoff, but the rear shaped charge warhead still has a strong penetration performance after completing the penetration of the simulated cabin.
