Single Plate Kinetic Energy Penetration

Estimate the Penetrating Power of KE Projectiles from 50 caliber SLAP to 120mm Tank Killers

Predict single plate penetration capability through hardened steel and aluminum armor of low length to diameter ratio (l/d) penetrators (less than 10) or high l/d ratio penetrators via two independent & validated algorithms, BAL-66 or Lambert. The Penetration analysis can be driven from trajectories stored in cross plot files.

Inputs

Penetrator Diameter, weight and length
Target Thickness, Obliquity Angle and Brinell Hardness
Trajectory profile

Outputs

Plot of Penetration vs. Slant Range
Plot of V50 vs. Target Thickness
Cross Plots
Formatted tables of results
