PROJECTILE AND FIREARM SYSTEM
A cartridge is disclosed with a casing and a projectile, wherein external ballistic stability is provided by a center of pressure of the projectile being rearward of a center of mass of the projectile. The projectile includes flight control surfaces that cooperate with the bore of a barrel without requiring rifling or sabots. The projectile can include fin configurations that cooperate with the bore to form a bearing surface with the bore.

Wing, flying object, and method for manufacturing a wing
A wing includes: a main structural member; a leading-edge member formed of material with a coefficient of linear thermal expansion different from that of material of the main structural member; an eccentric bushing that has a circular through-hole and is shaped in a cylindrical shape; and a coupling member. The leading-edge member has a first hole prolonged in a specific direction. The main structural member has a second hole. The center axis of the eccentric bushing and the center axis of the through-hole are parallel to and offset from each other. The eccentric bushing is inserted to the first hole. The first coupling member is inserted to the through-hole and the second hole to couple the main structural member and the leading-edge member.

PENETRATOR AND USE OF A PENETRATOR
A penetrator for a projectile, in particular a subcaliber kinetic energy penetrator, comprising a tail unit and a main core having a front part and a rear part, the tail unit being arranged on the rear part of the main core. A predetermined breaking point is formed between the front part and the rear part of the main core, and the material of the predetermined breaking point is designed to be mechanically less resilient that the rest of the main core.

Real-time image motion correction or stabilization system and methods for projectiles or munitions in flight
The present invention relates to projectiles and munitions, and more specifically to such in flight. More particularly the present invention relates to projectiles and munitions in flight equipped with one or more image sensors adapted for acquiring image data of the environment surrounding the projection or munition in flight. The present invention further relates to systems and methods for correcting or stabilizing motion effects and artifacts present in the image data related to the movement or motion of the projectile or munition in flight, including spin or rotation of the projectile or munition.
Apparatus and System to Counter Drones Using a Shoulder-Launched Aerodynamically Guided Missile
A battlefield weapon system is proposed to counter the threat posed by small drones. The main system element is an aerodynamically guided missile that is compatible with existing multipurpose shoulder launched weapon systems. The system is fully portable for dispersed deployment among infantry.
