These fixtures are typically for medium and large caliber systems.\u00a0 Ignition diagnostic fixtures use the following instrumentation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>16mm Hycam high-speed motion capture camera<\/li>\n<li>Accelerometer, pressure transducer,\u00a0 thermal instrumentation<\/li>\n<li>In-bore or in-chamber projectile position, velocity, acceleration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An intimate understanding of interior ballistics is necessary for the successful development of an ammunition concept or a new weapon system.\u00a0 At Veritay, we offer a wealth of experience in interior ballistics computer simulation and experimental diagnostics.
