A facility was designed to carry out the tests with the entry veloci- ties of around 352 m/s. Visualization, pressure ineasurement, velocity measurement and underwater impact test were performed to investigate the hydroballistic behav- ior of the underwater moving body, the underwater flow field, the supercavitation, etc.. This study shows that the motion of a high-speed underwater body is strongly three-dimensional and chaotic. Furthermore, it is found that the distribution of the trajectory deflection of the underwater projectile depends on the depth of water. It is also found by measuring the deformation on a witness plate submerged in water, that the impact energy of an underwater projectile is reduced as it penetrates deeper into water.展开更多
