  • Patent number: 10996039
    Abstract: A hand settable fuze interfaces with a servomotor to deploy a net from a projectile in flight. Prior to launch, a dial is rotated to both power on the fuze and set a preset delay. The projectile is then launched from a launcher system to deliver the stowed net rapidly and accurately toward a target. After the preset delay, the net is deployed from the projectile toward the target by operation of the servomotor.

  • Patent number: 9638500
    Abstract: A fragmentation warhead with a flexible liner enables increased control of the warhead's fragmentation pattern. The flexible liner is fixed to a rigid portion of the warhead housing. Explosive material is contained in the housing. A fluid is disposed between the explosive material and the flexible liner to function as a shock transition material. The fluid is contiguous with and bears on an inner surface of the flexible liner. A plurality of rigid fragments or a plurality of explosively formed projectile (EFP) liners are fixed to an outer surface of the flexible liner opposite the fluid. Initiation of the explosive material propels the fragments or EFP liners in directions that may be varied by varying the shape of the flexible liner.
