| A crowd control projectile includes a payload carrier, an incapacitating agent inside the payload carrier, and an activating mechanism for activating the incapacitating agent. The activating mechanism includes a sensor and a timer. The timer delays the activation until a predetermined delay after the sensor senses that the projectile has been launched. Alternatively, the activating mechanism includes a receiver for receiving an activation signal after the projectile has been launched. Preferably, the projectile has the shape of a clay pigeon. A launcher of such a projectile includes a communication mechanism for transmitting a timing signal or an activation signal to the projectile and an arm for launching the projectile by direct contact. To control a crowd, the projectile is launched over the crowd by direct contact with a solid arm and the activating mechanism is used to activate the incapacitating agent when the projectile is above the crowd. | ||||||

| A projector of multiple skewed light planes or sheets is located adjacent a vehicle to be protected and detectors are arranged to detect the penetration of the light sheets by an incoming object, with the time intervals between the piercing of the planes defining the path of the incoming object and its expected impact time. An array of bullet-firing barrels is arranged to project bullets in an iron curtain under control of a fire control module that fires a round in a barrel above the projected flight path such that the round impacts the nose of the object and disables it. It is thus the piercing of the skewed light sheets that provides information as to the impact point of the object as well as its time of arrival so that a round can be fired to intercept the object as it arrives at the iron curtain. | ||||||

| 27 | Multi-disk shell and wad | US135697 | 1998-08-18 | US6161482A | 2000-12-19 | George D. Clark |
| The present invention is a multidisk shell and wad for use in a multidisk shell. The wad consists of a wad base, a cushioning section attached at a first end to a top section of the wad base, and at least three alignment arms attached to a second end of the cushioning section. The cushioning section is interposed between the projectile mass and the wad base. The preferred cushioning section comprises a hollow outer cylinder and at least one inner cylinder of polymeric plastic material. Thus, there are at least two concentric cylinders providing the cushioning between the disks and the expanding propellant charge. These at least two concentric cylinders and are attached at first ends to the top side of the wad base. The wad has at least three spatially separated alignment arms having proximal ends and distal ends for maintaining the alignment of projectiles as they travel through the gun barrel. The maintenance of projectile alignment is helpful in reducing the scatter of the projectiles after they exit the gun. The at least three alignment arms are typically attached at the proximal ends to a second end of the cushioning section. The geometry of the at least three alignment arms is useful in the maintenance of the alignment of the projectile under acceleration. A preferred embodiment is a totally symmetrical configuration. Thus when the wad contains three alignment arms the arms are spaced at regular intervals of 120 degrees; four alignment arms are separated by 90 degrees; etc. | ||||||
| 28 | Method and arrangement for combating a submerged target object | US907152 | 1992-07-01 | US5214618A | 1993-05-25 | Georg Bugiel |
| A method for combating a submerged target object through the intermediary of an active body which is deployable in an airborne mode, and which picks up a sonar contact with the target object from a helically descending searching trajectory below the water level. Also disclosed is an arrangement for combating a submerged target object, especially a double-hulled submarine, through the intermediary of an active body deployable in an airborne mode which is equipped with a sonar installation and with guidance media for the traversing of a helical gliding search trajectory. Upon contacting a target through the intermediary of a searching sonar which is more simply constructed in comparison with a homing sonar, the active body launches an effector which is equipped with an extremely rapid drive into linear attacking trajectory tangentially to the searching trajectory, and wherein the effector will detonate a warhead upon impact against a target. | ||||||
