FX PROJECTILE
®
TERMINAL EFFECT
01
IN FLIGHT
Projectile is spin stabilized up to effective engagement range.
02
ENERGY DISSIPATION ON IMPACT BY DEFORMATION
Upon initial contact, impact energy is partially transformed into projectile deformation energy;
hence slowing down the projectile.
03
MARKING COMPOUND EXPELLED
Deformation of the FX projectile expels the marking compound through the star shaped openings.
®
04 LARGER PROJECTILE DIAMETER FOR NON-PENETRATION SAFETY
Final impact energy is then transferred on a much larger impact diameter that serves two purposes:
/ Distributes impact force over a larger surface
/ Increases diameter of projectile to ensure non-skin penetration performance
