Tungsten-nickel-iron alloy has extensive and important applications in the military field due to its comprehensive properties such as high density, high strength, good toughness and corrosion resistance, making it an ideal material for manufacturing various key military equipment components.
In the field of ammunition, this alloy is the core material of armor-piercing projectile cores. Due to its high-density characteristic, armor-piercing projectiles can obtain huge kinetic energy when flying at high speed, and can destroy enemy armored vehicles, tanks and other heavy equipment with strong penetration when hitting the target. Compared with traditional steel projectile cores, tungsten-nickel-iron alloy projectile cores have stronger penetration at the same speed and are not easy to break after hitting the target, which can play a more effective killing role. In addition, the alloy is also used as counterweight or damage components in cluster bombs, shaped charge bombs and other ammunition to improve the combat effectiveness of ammunition.
In the guidance weapon system, tungsten-nickel-iron alloy can be used to manufacture key components of inertial navigation systems, such as gyro rotors. Gyro rotors need to have extremely high density and dimensional stability to ensure the accuracy of the navigation system. The high density of the alloy can increase the moment of inertia of the rotor, making it maintain a stable attitude when rotating at high speed, while the low thermal expansion coefficient ensures the dimensional stability of the rotor when the temperature changes, thereby improving the hit accuracy of guided weapons.
In terms of armor protection, tungsten-nickel-iron alloy can be used to manufacture light armor plates. Although its density is high, through reasonable structural design, the weight of the armor can be reduced on the premise of ensuring the protection performance, which is suitable for the protection of armored vehicles, helicopters and other equipment. The alloy can effectively resist the attack of bullets, shell fragments, etc., providing reliable protection for equipment and personnel.
In addition, in military communication equipment and radar systems, the alloy can be used as shielding components. By virtue of its magnetic properties and high density, it can effectively block electromagnetic interference and radiation, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment. In underwater weapons such as torpedoes and mines, tungsten-nickel-iron alloy can be used as counterweight components to adjust the center of gravity of the weapons and ensure their stable movement attitude in water.
