Abstract:
Explosive devices, and in particular cluster explosively-formed penetrator warhead devices, are described herein. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, a spherically-shaped explosive device comprises an initiator, a fuze component system configured to ignite the initiator, and a substantially spherical explosive charge surrounding the initiator. The substantially spherical explosive charge has a substantially spherical surface. A plurality of liners are on the substantially spherical surface of the substantially spherical explosive charge.
