Damage effectiveness research for terminal guided projectile to armored target paper

To solve the problem of damage effectiveness for terminal guided projectile to armored target, the projectile explosive process based on ANSYS/LY-DYNA program was simulated, and the fragment velocity was found. The penetrating process was simulated when the velocity and quality of the fragment was different, and it shown that some fragments could penetrate the 5cm thickness steel armor. After contrasting the weak parts of the armored target, results indicated that the terminal guided projectile can damage most of the armored target, which may make the loss of combat effectiveness.
