The CEM-UT rapid-fire compulsator railgun system-recent performance and development milestones

Twenty-seven compulsator-powered railgun experiments have been performed, including a 1.0 MJ discharge at 3510 r/min. In this test, a 724 kA current pulse accelerated an 80 g, aluminum armature to 2.05 km/s, thus exceeding the projectile velocity goal at 73%-rated machine speed. Furthermore, operati...
