Abstract

The mechanisms of the stationary and nonstationary interaction between a metal shaped charge jet and the front reactive armor plate (moving toward the jet) and rear (moving behind the jet) reactive armor plate. The range of interaction parameters in which these mechanisms take place was determined. The interaction of the shaped-charge jet with the front plate is mainly stationary and leads to the wearing of the jet in the transverse direction (reduction in the diameter of the jet) and its deflection by a small angle. The interaction of the shaped-charge jet with the rear plate is mainly of a nonstationary discrete nature and forms unilateral transverse perturbations in the jet, which, developing, lead to its bending and subsequent destruction.
