Abstract

We conducted an experimental analytical study to understand the mechanisms and dominant parameters for 7.62mm APM2 bullets that perforate 6082-T651 aluminum plates at oblique impacts. Tests were conducted with the full bullet and the hard core only to show that the hard core dominates the perforation process. Models show good agreement with measured residual and ballistic-limit velocities.
