Tungsten alloy swaging rod consists of W-Ni-Fe, W-Ni-Cu or W-Ni-Cu-Fe. Tungsten alloy swaging rod is made of tungsten alloy rod. After being swaged, the ultimate stensile strength can reach 1200 MPa or even 1400MPa. Tungsten alloy swaging rod is widely used in military industries. The warhead of FGM-148 Javelin adopted tungsten alloy swaging rod.
The FGM-148 Javelin is a United States-made man-portable fire-and-forget anti-tank missile fielded to replace the Dragon antitank missile in US service.
FGM-148 Javelin is a fire-and-forget missile with lock-on before launch and automatic self-guidance. The system takes a top-attack flight profile against armored vehicles (attacking the top armor, which is generally thinner), but can also take a direct-attack mode for use against buildings. This missile also has the ability to engage helicopters in the direct attack mode. It can reach a peak altitude of 150 m (500 ft) in top-attack mode and 60 m in direct-fire mode. It is equipped with an imaging infrared seeker. The tandem warhead is fitted with two shaped charges: a precursor warhead to detonate any explosive reactive armor and a primary warhead to penetrate base armor.
With tungsten alloy swaging rod, FGM-148 Javelin can penetrate armor easily to destroy armor vehicles or tanks.
