Technique for Measuring the Spin Rate of Kinetic Energy Projectiles
Abstract
Kinetic energy projectiles were fitted with dihedral plugs in their tracer wells in an attempt to measure their spin histories via Doppler radar. Data from three projectiles were reduced and the approximate steady-state spin rates were obtained.... Doppler radar, Kinetic energy projectiles, Roll.
