Penetrator projectile for explosive device neutralization

Provided herein are penetrator projectiles for use with explosive ordnance disposal disrupters, and related methods of making and using. The penetrator projectile has a tip, neck, shaft and base, wherein the geometry and composition of the different elements are selected to ensure the projectile is ballistically stable after firing to provide improved free-flight characteristics and corresponding explosive ordnance disruption.

Ceramic bullet tip to assist bullets in shattering glass
11073368 · 2021-07-27 ·

The present invention comprises a novel device, a ceramic cap that is firmly attached in a manner that prevents relative rotation axial movement or separation between the modified tip of an existing bullet and said cap to allow the modified bullet to shatter the glass of an automotive or truck windshield on contact, thus allowing the bullet to pass through the glass with a reduction of deflection incurred by non-modified bullets while producing larger bullet holes and areas of glass disruption than non-modified rounds and increasing the quantity and size of injury inflicting shrapnel.
