LESS-THAN LETHAL AMMUNITION UTILIZING A SUSTAINER MOTOR

摘要

A weapon system and corresponding ammunition for causing less-than- lethal effects to a target employ a projectile fired from a rifle-mounted, rifle- operated or dedicated rifle-like device and configured for generating less-than- Iethal effects to a human target. The projectile includes a rocket motor configured to mitigate velocity decay of the projectile. The rocket motor is preferably a sustainer motor for maintaining a roughly constant cruise velocity of the projectile.
