Abstract
The explosive formed penetrator (EFP) warhead missile projects the blast fragments in one direction normal to the missile longitudinal axis. Through analyzing on the two restrictions of EFP warhead explosion: Trajectory restriction and attitude requirement, the concept of fuze time-delay tolerance is presented to be the measurement of the time of the EFP warhead explosion. The calculation models of fuze time-delay tolerance under two restrictions are provided. Some crucial parameters playing important roles in calculation under attitude requirements are simulated. The simulation results show that the engagement plane angle, roll rate and warhead attack standoff influence the tolerance dramatically.
