The process of dispensing of rods driven by aiming explosive charge and the influence of different structures on dispensing velocity and angle of KE-rod were studied through analyzing the images. All these can be helpful for the design of new concept anti tactical ballistic missile(ATBM) KE-rod warheads.展开更多
