Zusammenfassung:This research project compares the blast overpressures from the Shock Tube of Lovelace Inhalation and Toxicology Research Institute to ascertain its conformity to the blast from the M198 howitzer fired with the M203 propellant charge. The Shock Tube is used for differing rates of fire and to approximate the gunner's position on the howitzer. With a slower rate of fire and with reflecting plates in the shock tube a closer correlation is achieved. (Author) See also Volume 1, AD-A095 465.
