Abstract

Abstract : There are, at present, two major types of armor-defeating ammunition; projectiles which depend upon their own kinetic energy to pierce or punch a hole through armor, and explosive-loaded shell which, upon impact and denotation against armor, generate the energy required for the defeat of the target.
