ABSTRACT:
A three-dimensional movable gunnery target comprises an envelope of flexible material such as rubber, neoprene, plastics material or fabric, which is rapidly dilatable to a predetermined shape, for example by internal gas pressure from a chemical or pyrotechnic device, or from a compressed gas bottle. The target, which is capable of rolling under the action of wind or gravity, encloses an axle from which a compressed gas bottle is suspended.
