Measurement and Analysis of the Recoil Reaction Forces of the ADMAG 75mm Gun System on a Hard Mount

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA104722 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The ADMAG system was instrumented to characterize the dynamic response of the gun needed to validate system simulations being developed for MC-AAAC as a part of the HSTVL program. This report deals with the measurement and analysis of recoil reaction forces at the trunnions. The resulting data are presented for use as input to the gun dynamics simulations.
