modular test facility for characterizing the fragmentation of various
warheads and munitions. Used to measure lethality and performance, and
to determine safety danger zones.
- Arena
fragmentation tests primarily for assessing detonating munitions
- Measurements
include fragment mass, velocity, and distribution
- Velocity
measurement by photographic and electronic means
- Basic
fragmentation data obtained by methods described in ITOP 4-2-813
