Abstract: This paper presents a computational comparison of the penetrability of two shaped charges – with conical and hemispherical (degressive thickness) liners. It is shown that close values of the penetrability of the charges are provided only in the ideal case of strictly axisymmetric motion of shaped-charge jets.

Keywords: shaped charge, liner, ultimate jet length, effective velocity, drift velocity, penetrability.
