ABSTRACT:
In order to achieve a fragmentation device having a highly effective coupling between the fragments and the high explosive used therewith, we provide in accordance with this invention a novel layered warhead in which uniformly thick layers of fragments are interspersed with well defined layers of detonating, military type explosive, thus defining a desirably low charge-to-metal ratio, and making possible a predictable, uniform pattern as well as very high fragment velocities.
