Abstract (en)
High-velocity projectile launcher. It comprises a chamber (1, 2) filled with detonating explosive (20) accelerating the projectile (10). The barrel (5) is notched with grooves (16) which filter the shockwave and which prevent the tube (6) from imploding. An accelerator (11) can be provided. The invention is used for simulating fragment impacts. <IMAGE>
