MWB/LB-69 : Gun & Ammunition Design: Small Caliber- Standard & Experimental Ballistics The main emphasis on this course will be in the Standard Small Caliber Gun
and Ammunition design of systems up to and including 40 MM. Some Experimental
Ballistics will also be covered. Gun and Ammunition design considerations and parameters will be discussed
to provide information which can eliminate or greatly reduce catastrophic or
safety problems. Manuals and Training with the actual systems are absolutely
essential in order to have good, safe and proper function and operation of
any good system. Actual hardware testing by engineers as well as ordnance technicians (not
done at this course) is essential for a well trained individual who will be
dealing with propellants and explosives. It is the responsibility of each
installation to see to it that they have a well planned hands-on training
program. Also, in these days of reduced budgets, the use of simulated training
versus actual training will be discussed in this as well as the Gun &
Ammunition Design: Large Caliber & Experimental Ballistics Course.
