Abstract
This paper discussed the technologies and methods for the effective destruction of submarine buried targets in modern warfare and maritime security. As these targets are highly concealed and difficult to destroy, they are mainly dealt with by kinetic energy penetrators and blasting loads. Due to its efficient penetration capability and design simplicity, kinetic energy penetrator is more suitable to deal with deeply buried targets and enhance the destruction effect through secondary explosion. The paper analyzed the influence of different submarine media on the penetration effect and optimized the design of the penetrator through numerical simulation and experimental research. Blasting load is widely used because of its wide range of action and high hit rate. The paper also discussed the effects of shock wave propagation characteristics, cratering effect, blast cavity characteristics, and liquefaction effect on target destruction. Future research recommendations include strengthening the basic research on the penetration and explosion mechanism of submarine media, establishing high-precision models, and developing experimental platforms to simulate submarine environments, so as to enhance the capability of destroying submarine buried targets.
