ABSTRACT:
My invention consists of a method of using the overpressure shock from a large number of air bursts, i.e., small explosives placed on the ground, to destroy aerial targets. The destruction of said aerial targets is effected by placing the explosive charges on a surface, all points of which are equidistant from the target. Alternately, the explosives are detonated on a surface which is NOT equidistant to the target at all points, but the explosives are delayed in such a manner that the shock wave from all of the explosive packages reach the target at the same time, they constructively interfere to cause a region of high overpressure which destroys the target.
