Abstract

This invention is a shaped explosive device with a liner that has a parabolic apex, which can produce a purely planar symmetric jet. The half pipe liner in the present invention has a parabolic apex or pole toward the aft end, a ā€œVā€ notch on each side of the concave wings toward the fore end, and liner base end on each wing. Liner resembles two angled half sections of thin walled pipe butted together at the apex or pole, and when properly driven by a high explosive will produce a spade shaped stretching Munroe jet that erodes a deep elongated hole in a target. Alternatively, this invention is a shaped explosive device with a liner that produces a single combination jet consisting of a forward rod portion and rearward flattened spade shaped portion, this jet has a velocity gradient form tip to tail. When applied in a circular or other polygonal shaped array the Axilinear shaped charges will produce extremely large diameter holes greater than the overall diameter of the array.
