Test Report of Mk 45 and Mk 47 Shaped Demolition Charges Compatibility Testing

Abstract

Mk 45 and Mk 47 shaped demolition charges were tested to determine the safety of the designs and the effects of the incompatibility between the RDX composition and the adhesives. The testing verified the following: the RDX composition is incompatible with the adhesives, the charges are presently safe, the designs will not rapidly deteriorate to an unsafe condition, and the charges currently meet the original design requirements.
