What is a tungsten alloy APFSDS (APFSDS)?

Tungsten APFSDS is one of the main anti-tank weapon in the world today. Tungsten APFSDS than relying on high explosives to penetrate armor, but on its own momentum carried penetrate armor. APFSDS tungsten alloy commonly used in tanks and armored vehicles, its shape is shaped pole.

Tungsten APFSDS is using its own kinetic energy to penetrate armor. The kinetic energy depends on the speed and quality, at a certain speed, increasing the quality of the elastomer is another way to increase the kinetic energy. Piercing therefore generally use high density, high hardness and high temperature of the material. This will also ensure that when the projectile is not easy to bend to combat armored collision, the collision energy generated will reduce the strength of elastomers. Now more widely used material is tungsten alloy and depleted uranium. But depleted uranium with high radiation, to be debated. The higher density tungsten alloy, quality is also large, can increase the kinetic energy. Tungsten alloy hardness is also higher, bending does not occur when piercing. In addition, non-toxic and non-radioactive tungsten alloy, does not produce environmental pollution.

Tungsten alloy is a high-temperature metallic materials, bomb bomb body by means of high temperature and pressure environment to make bombs for a larger initial velocity, so the tungsten alloy bomb warhead in the body to withstand high temperatures and pressure. Tungsten is used as tungsten was used because it is high-temperature performance. Tungsten is also a high density, compressive strength corrosion resistant metallic materials. Tungsten alloy chemically stable at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and acid and alkali reaction does not occur. Density tungsten alloy can reach great balance APDS stabilizing device is made ​​of a tungsten alloy. Tungsten is an environmentally friendly metal material. Environmental issues has been a strong appeal to people around the world problems. The earliest use of the bullet is made ​​of lead, long after the use of environmental pollution to the local environment. In order to protect the environment hit again, you should try to use environmentally friendly materials. Environmental advantages of tungsten alloys are increasingly being well known.


Tungsten alloy warhead is empty space shoot-guided weapons used in warheads. These aerial bomb warhead actually finished components. These structures can be trimmed without warhead into the missile body to use.

Tungsten alloy warhead diameter circle bundles by the production, storage and transport (2, 3, 4, or 6 bunch). Produce tungsten alloy warhead when used without processing them again, as long as the body directly into bomb shells can be used. This greatly reduces the production principles production, use and technical maintenance costs, and shorten the preparation time operational use. Tungsten alloy warhead including 500 pounds, 1000 pounds and 2000 pounds of fixed charge killer / blast warhead and penetrating warhead.

In the missile - a typical bomb hit ground targets destroyed in the process should be reinforced as much as 90% of the target or with the highly protective underground targets. Penetrating Warhead and development of new type of warhead penetration is the best weapon to destroy these underground targets. Tungsten alloy warhead can destroy and destroy located personnel, technical equipment, oil base and armory open areas or improvised shelter, removal of mines and other obstacles.

Tungsten alloy penetrators rely tungsten alloy penetrators penetrating armor kinetic energy projectiles to destroy targets. Depleted uranium bombs, also known as the decay of uranium bomb or debilitating uranium bomb. Refers to the use of nuclear power projectile out of the nuclear waste produced by depleted uranium-based alloys as raw material to produce warheads.

Both materials can be used to produce the kinetic energy penetrators. Depleted uranium has a better ballistic performance when piercing would arise from sharpening. Some people think it is self-sharpening ability to penetrate the early stages of depleted uranium sensitivity to adiabatic shear stress due. Tungsten alloy does not have the ability to limit the shear stress in a certain area, resulting in the early warhead to penetrate into the front end was beaten flat mushroom shape, thus reducing the depth of penetration.

But since in actual combat, drills, shooting practice, depleted uranium powder would spread to the natural environment, and depleted uranium is chemically toxic heavy metals, but also radioactive substances, so the use of depleted uranium bombs also caused controversy legitimacy . The tungsten alloy penetrators, not only has good armor-piercing power, and compared with depleted uranium has a non-toxic, non-radioactive pollution.

For environmental protection requirements, tungsten alloy penetrators caused the attention of manufacturers.

Tungsten is a class of 80-98% in the matrix Ni-Fe-W solid solution of two-phase composite materials. As one would wish, tungsten metal tungsten alloy combines high density, high strength and good ductility matrix phase, and thus, it has a series of excellent physical, chemical and mechanical properties. Due to the excellent properties of tungsten alloys, tungsten alloys are widely used in the weapons industry, one use is as tungsten core anti-materiel rifle.

Anti-materiel rifles (Anti-Materiel Rifle), a continuation of the two world wars of the anti-tank gun Anti-Tank Rifle ideas, firing large-caliber machine gun, with a tungsten core anti-materiel rifle can punch through armor thin light tank and anti-personnel inside. Also used in anti-sniper hidden behind bunkers. Mainly used to deal with vehicles, depots, radar, telescope observation mirror, low-flying helicopters, ground parked aircraft. Anti-materiel rifle with anti-tank gun, very focused on penetrating ammunition to anti-materiel rifle tungsten alloy big powerful bombs of a class, the main goal is to light armor; while off than large-caliber machine guns are much lighter, can be equipped to man used to strengthen the combat capability of the infantry squad platoon level units. For example, equipped with a tungsten core of anti-materiel rifle M82A1 M24 firepower to make up for the power of persistence and the war in Afghanistan, it has been witnessed at 1,760 yards (about 1600 meters) outside an Afghan Taliban officials, escorted into the car M82A1 way was torn in half. U.S. Coast Guard conducted using M82A1 narcotics operations, effectively combating the drug trafficking coast of speed boats.

Metals Tungsten heavy alloy sequence, there is a high proportion of alloy most prominent feature is the high proportion of that is, we often say that the density. Density tungsten alloy can reach 18g/cm3, steel gravity (7.8g/cm3) 2.3 times, so the heart of a large cross-section density shells, storage capacity and speed of the steel will help improve the penetration capability of flying.

Tungsten core machine gun was developed in the 1970s after an excellent machine gun. This machine gun warhead shelling principle adopted a new structure and a high-density tungsten alloys, new materials, with a high muzzle velocity, trajectory and low elongation, the flight time is short, high hit accuracy, penetration force, etc., can effectively deal with fast moving target; their shells heart section density, and hardened steel or tungsten carbide core penetration bombs in the course of the entire heart broken contrary, tungsten alloy shells heart malleability better to splash piercing, with excellent secondary penetration characteristics, the large angle, and multi-layer sandwich structure composite armor piercing effect is more obvious. At home and abroad have been widely used in the large-caliber bullets and small-caliber artillery, ammunition, armored personnel carriers as deal with armed helicopters, light armored targets.

84 type of tungsten core 12.7mm machine gun equipped for 77 12.7mm machine gun style, common to 54-type 12.7mm machine gun, bullet mass 28g, playing mind quality 22g, the quality is warheads 78.6% projectile core diameter 7.9mm , the second aperture ratio (i.e., d1/d2, dl is core diameter shells, d2 is the diameter of the warhead) is 0.62, muzzle velocity 1150m / s, at 45 ° with 1 000m angles may impose breakdown homogeneous steel plate 15mm thick, the same 45 ° the angle, the maximum distance can breakdown homogeneous alloy steel plate 20mm thick for 150m. The 9.5m-made 54-style shooting at 12.7mm armor-piercing incendiary ricochet from steel is produced, which can only penetrate to 30 ° forward angle 15mm thick steel plate at 830m, 125m at penetrating 20mm thick steel. Visible, 12.7mm machine gun in the tungsten core with a large angle of steel armor-piercing capability.
