Other Title
Cannon having a propulsion system for high-speed projectiles
Abstract
The description refers to a gun having a propulsion system for high-speed projectiles. The mass inertia of the powdered gases to be accelerated limits an increase in the performance of introduced powder cannons used to attain a greater muzzle velocity by the use of high-energy propulsion powder. The regenerative injection systems used to increase performance are complex mechanical devices. The cannon according to the invention is a hybrid system achieves much higher muzzle velocities than conventional systems through its simple construction and easy handling.
