Analysis projectile performance in ballistic tests using compressed air gun

Ballistic resistance is affected by the projectile and armor material used. The character behavior of affects its ability to damage penetrate armor. velocity, mass shape are main factors in determining this case target plate. Therefore, study aims determine analyze effect on velocity with which it penetrates using a compressed air gun. Armor as ballistic test carbon steel plate thickness 0.8 mm; 1.2 mm 1.8 mm. Projectiles lead materials different masses shapes fired from gun under controlled pressure, set at 2000 Psi, 3000 4000 Psi provide thrust barrel. plat placed distance 5 m Speed gauges after projectile's rate before passing through results concluded that ejected was influenced magnitude pressure projectile. has more dominant compared amount applied. Different same have no significant velocity. However, heavier outperforms lighter It required right combination be able
