Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005026652A1] The invention relates to a method and to a device for penetrating walls, barricades and light armour, based on the selection of suitable tips (4) arranged on a piercing core (2). The tips (4) are introduced into the piercing core (2) and/or replaced, according to the ductability of the target. The explosive charge (15) in the piercing core (2) is ignited after the target is penetrated in order to obtain maximum effect based on damming arising in the target and producing man holes in hard targets according to appropriate selection. The inventive object can be used tactically with minimal collateral damage.
