INVESTIGATION TO IMPROVE THE TECHNOLOGY FOR PRODUCING EXPLOSIVES THAT GENERATE COLUMNS OF COLORED WATER
Abstract
Proficiency in product design and manufacturing technology for economic and national security
purposes is an imperative need for the military specifically and for all industries broadly. In the realm
of testing, the development of cost-effective equipment that aligns with current pricing is critically
essential, particularly for apparatus that requires frequent practical use. Colored explosives are
crucial for signaling locations and coordinating activities among groups throughout the practice. For
the first time, this article delineates the findings of a study aimed at refining the technique for
producing colored water column explosives. The test results indicate that the product meets the
specified technical criteria: the water column height exceeds 25m, the color height surpasses 15m,
the color retention duration exceeds 5 seconds, and the color visibility exceeds 1000m. The colored
water column explosive product may be used by the military for training, exercises, synchronization
of military balance, or demonstrations at events.
