Abstract

Havacılık ilk günlerinden bu tarafa çok yol kat etmiştir ve teknoloji ilerledikçe uçaklar daha da gelişerek özellikle harp sahasında çok etkili hale gelmiştir. Ayrıca havacılık alanında derinlemesine gerçekleştirilen araştırma çalışmaları ile ortaya konan buluşlar özellikle mühimmat konusunda havacılık sektörünü büyük ölçüde etkilemektedir. Bu bağlamda, havacılık mühimmatları havacılığın önemli bir bileşenidir ve muharebede yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Havacılık mühimmatının, uçağa konuşlanma sırasında meydana gelebilen bir arıza veya uçaktan ayrılırken meydana gelen erken patlamanın mürettebat üzerinde ölümcül etkilere neden olmasından dolayı bombanın emniyetli bir şekilde ayrılması gerekmektedir. Bu nedenle çağdaş bombalar, patlamadan önce uçaktan kesin ve güvenli bir şekilde ayrılmayı garanti eden gelişmiş güvenlik özellikleriyle donatılmaktadır. İlave olarak, istenen etkinin boyutuna göre balistik katsayının belirlenmesi, mühimmat tiplerine yönelik seçimin önemini ortaya koymaktadır. Aksi takdirde hedefdeki tahribatın istenilen ölçüde gerçekleşmesi mümkün olmayacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, hava mühimmatlarının temel özellikleri ve jenerik uçak bombalarının bileşimi ile işleyişi hakkında kapsamlı bir kavrayış sunmaktır.

A Systematic Research on Ballistic Characteristics of Aerial Ammunitions

Abstract

Aviation has come a long way since its early days, and as technology has advanced, air vehicles have become even more advanced and effective, especially on the battlefield. In addition, in-depth research and discoveries in the field of aviation have a significant impact on the aviation industry, especially in the field of munitions. In this context, aerial ammunition is an important component of aviation and is widely used in combat. Because a malfunction that may occur during separation or premature detonation during separation from the aircraft may cause fatal effects on the crew. That’s why the bomb must be safely separated from the air vehicles. Modern bombs are therefore equipped with advanced safety features that guarantee a precise and safe separation from the aircraft before explosion. In addition, the determination of the ballistic coefficient according to the size of the desired effect reveals the importance of the choice of munition types. Otherwise, it will not be possible to achieve the desired level of target destruction. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the basic characteristics of aerial munitions, including the composition and operation of generic aircraft bombs.
