Tungsten Alloy Swaging Rod for AS.34 Kormoran

Tungsten alloy swaging rod consists of W-Ni-Fe, W-Ni-Cu, W-Ni-Cu-Fe. It is made of tungsten alloy rod. Tungsten content ranges from 90% to 97%. Compared with tungsten alloy rod, tungsten alloy swaging rod has higher hardness and higher strength. Tungsten alloy swaging rod can be used as kinetic energy penetrator in AS.34 Kormoran.

The AS.34 Kormoran is a German-produced Anti-ship missile. The Kormoran (cormorant) uses an inertial guidance system for the midcourse phase, switching to active radar homing during the terminal attack phase. It carries a 165 kg (363 lb) delay-fused warhead, designed for 90mm of penetration prior to detonation. The maximum range is 23 km (~14 miles).

AS.34 Kormoran penetrates armor on ship by utilizing kinetic energy. Kinetic energy has closed relationship with density of materials. Tungsten alloy swaging rod has high density, which means it can carry more kinetic energy than other materials, improving penetration of AS.34 Kormoran.
