3 Problem: Current HE warheads pose a serious safety risk onboard ship when exposed to IM threats Objective: Improve the Insensitive Munitions (IM) performance of a COMP B loaded 2.75-Inch High Explosive warhead.

4 2.75-INCH ROCKET SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 2.75-INCH ROCKET SYSTEM FAMILY NAVY & MARINE CORPS LAUNCHERS: LAU-68D/A (7-TUBES) & LAU-61C/A (19-TUBES) ARMY LAUNCHERS (HELICOPTERS ONLY): M260 (7-TUBES) & M261 (19-TUBES) AIR FORCE LAUNCHER: LAU-131A (7-TUBE) 19-TUBE LAUNCHER NAVY & MARINE CORPS ROCKET MOTORS: MK 66 MODS 2 & 4 ARMY ROCKET MOTORS: MK 66 MODS 1, 3 & 4 AIR FORCE ROCKET MOTORS: MK 66 MODS 2 & 4 WARHEADS M151 M229 MK 67 M257 WDU-4A/A M261 M278 M259 M156 WTU-1/B 7-TUBE LAUNCHER ROCKET MOTOR WARHEAD 7-TUBE LAUNCHER

5 CURRENT M229 WARHEAD Contains 4.8 lbs COMP B4 explosive Cast iron nose and steel base identical to M151 HE warhead, separated by a 10 cast iron cylindrical body (brazed) Uses M423 or M427 point detonating fuze with RDX lead-in and booster charge

6 CURRENT COMP B PERFORMANCE (IN M151 WARHEAD) COMP B FILL FAST COOK-OFF SLOW COOK-OFF BULLET IMPACT FRAGMENT IMPACT SYMP. DETONATION PARTIAL DET. DETONATION DEFLAGRATION DETONATION DETONATION

7 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD PROPOSED DESIGN PBXN-110 or PBXN-107 explosive main fill PBXN-5 lead-in charge PBXN-7 booster charge Venting on both ends

8 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD Lead-in charge Steel base with polycarbonate threaded insert Fuze Cast iron case with explosive fill Fuze booster Polycarbonate nose adapter

9 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD THEORETICAL FCO REACTION WARHEAD BASE ATTACHED TO PLASTIC THREADED INSERT FUZE ATTACHED TO PLASTIC ADAPTER ROCKET MOTOR LAUNCHER FUEL FIRE 300 o F PLASTIC ADAPTER MELTS AND DROPS WARHEAD FUZE 350 o F EXPLOSIVE FILL REACTS AND VENTS FROM BOTH ENDS.

10 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD IM TEST RESULTS COMP B FILL PBXN-110 FILL PBXN-107 FILL FAST COOK-OFF PARTIAL DET. BURN EXPLOSION SLOW COOK-OFF DETONATION BURN DEFLAGRATION BULLET IMPACT DEFLAGRATION BURN BURN FRAGMENT IMPACT DETONATION DETONATION DETONATION SYMP. DETONATION DETONATION NOT TESTED NOT TESTED

11 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD Slow Cook-Off Results PBXN-110 loaded warhead

12 IMPROVED M229 HE WARHEAD DESIGN EVALUATION TESTING IMPROVED M229 WARHEAD LETHALITY TEST SET-UP Nose-initiated, fragment pattern shifted towards tail FIBERBOARDS 8 ft MODIFIED M229 WARHEAD WITH BLASTING CAP PEDESTAL 9 ft Both PBXN-110 & PBXN-107 filled warheads resulted in a smaller fragment average at higher velocities than COMP B Determining Probability of Kill values 4 ft 15 ft SIDE VIEW 8 ft TOP VIEW WARHEAD FRAGMENTS

13 Conclusion: IM improvements were successful PBXN-110 performed better than PBXN-107 in IM tests Design demonstrated sufficient IM improvement to warrant continuation of program
