Abstract
Wind tunnel testing of an aircraft anti-armor bomb (PTAB) is performed to determine its aerodynamic coefficients at subsonic and transonic flow regimes. In the same regimes, the fuze mechanism arming time is tested, directly depending on the local flow field around the anti-armor bomb. The objective of this investigation is to define a reliable method of determining the fuze mechanism arming time. A verification of the same characteristics of the anti-armor bomb in real flight conditions will be taken into consideration to approve the method after wind tunnel testing.
