The invention belongs to a weapon namely to the automatic weapons without ammunition. Particularly it belongs to the weapons using the energy of the explosion mixture gas, flammable liquid or other mixture in the combustion chamber as a mover of bullets. A weapon without ammunition, arranged according to the bullpup scheme, contains: the barrel; the receiver in the form of a cylinder rolling in a rectangular box; the trigger mechanism; the piston for supplying combustible mixture to the combustion chamber and for cooking the compressed air in the mixing tube. This piston is connected by a rod with the piston gas tube; the cylinder full of compressed gas, flammable liquid or other mixture; the drum with several chambers of internal combustion in the form of elongated cylinders. When moving to the trunk a drum is pushed by the nozzle of the lower chamber in the rear part of the bullet and toilet it in the trunk from the top of the camera. This occurs by the rotation around its own axis and longitudinal movement along this axis; the ignition mechanism consisting of a piezoelectric element and the spark; the secondary ignition system consists of a battery and a capacitor; the venting mechanism with the gas tube and piston, in which the gases are directed toward the muzzle; the return mechanism; the multi-function ammunition cartridge of extended capacity, feeding the bullets into the machine vertically. There is a function of the butt, and when you transfer the spare magazines on the body of the soldier there is a function of armor plates.

A smart round of ammunition includes a casing, a primer disposed at a bottom portion of the casing, a projectile mounted at a top portion of the casing and a propellant disposed within an interior portion of the casing between the projectile and primer. The primer includes a piezo generator transducing a mechanical force received at a firing pin portion of the primer into a stored charge, a switch coupling and decoupling a spark gap between the stored charge and the propellant, and a wireless sensor activating the switch responsive to a digital signal received from a component external to the casing. The activation permits a discharge of the stored charge into the spark gap and therefore detonates the propellant.

An ignition system for energetics including artillery charges includes a radio frequency transmitter and a radio frequency igniter. The radio frequency ignitor receives and converts radio frequency energy into heat or electrical energy for the purpose of igniting energetics, such as propellants or pyrotechnics. The radio frequency igniter may be applied to the exterior of the energetic container or may be integral to the container.

The invention relates to a method for the repeatable initiation of propellent charges in a weapon system, for example in the firing of projectiles from a barrel weapon, through electrical discharge between a rear electrode (22) and a front electrode (21) in a combustion chamber channel (3) filled with filler gas and comprising a combustion chamber combustion element (30), in which the filler gas in the combustion chamber channel (3) is ionized via a high-voltage potential from at least one ionizing electrode (100, 101, 102, 103), which ionization increases the electrical conductivity in the combustion chamber channel (3) so that an electrical flashover, through electrical discharge via a high-voltage generator (5) between the rear electrode (22) and the front electrode (21), is generated from the rear electrode (22) via at least one ionizing electrode (100, 101, 102, 103) onward to the front electrode (21), which results in hot ignition gas with plasma-like state being expelled from the combustion chamber channel (3). The invention also relates to a plasma generator for the said method, and to an ammunition unit comprising the said plasma generator.
