The article analyzes the possible risks that can arise when firing artillery and rocket launches. The disadvantages of the method of calculating the protection zones are identified, which taking into account will reduce the likelihood of the occurrence of abnormal situations, which can lead to tragic consequences and damage to objects adjacent to the boundary of the testing ground. Additions to the procedure for determining the protection zones of the test site in the interests of RVIA are proposed and the specified, correct sizes of these zones are provided. Development of rocket troops and artillery (RTaA) of the Armed Forces (AF) of Ukraine is impossible without a permanent improvement and modernisation of types of armament and ammunition to them, development of the new artillery systems and their ground tests. During realization of ground tests of types of armament and military technique (WME) of RTaA firing of artillery and starting of rockets is accompanied by errors or wrong acts of WME attendant and personnel or extraneous persons, the consequences of that must be envisaged, and the risk of their origin is Analysis of the battle firing, including during realization of anti-terror operation and operation of the incorporated forces on east of Ukraine row of ground tests of standards of WME RTaA test if possibility of origin of nonpermanent near-accidents during application of armament of RtaA as a result of rejection of trajectory of flight of projectile (mines) by the direction and distance from the expected targets. Mostly it happens through untaking into account of maximal rejections of meteorological and ballistic terms of firing from tabular or errors in calculations, wrong acquisition of charge, error at aiming of fighting machines, cannons, mortars. There for practice of the battle firing needs taking into account of these errors, that will give an opportunity consider ably to promo test rength security at application of armament of RAaT during testing of standards of WME. Thus, in the article certainly and possible risks that can arise up during realization of firing of artillery and starting of rockets are analysed, related to the lacks of existent methodology of realization of calculations in relation to providing of safety measures during the tests of WME RtaA. Suggestions are brought in, in relation to the improvement of methodology of realization of calculations of sizes of protective zones, that unlike existing more in detail take into account maximal deviations of terms of firing from tabular values. These suggestions for providing of safety measures it will be allowed to decrease probability of origin of situations, that can result in tragic consequences and to causing of damages to the objects that fit closely to the limits of training field. Anoffer adding to the order of determination of protective zones and given specified sizes of the sezones have an important practical value at determination of possibilities of grounds and providing of safety of testing and battle firing (starting) of RtaA.

A general approach is considered, which allows to use the information models of automated interaction of control bodies to generate correct results of information-computingtasks, which are solved by means of complexes of automation of control units of artillery units.

One of basic tasks of CFA there is realization of possibilities of the special software basis of that is made by information-computing tasks (ICT). To ICT hard requirements are pulled out in relation to unification, accordance to the technical equipments, and also openness and adaptivity both to maintenance of tasks for automation of that they are intended and to the time indexes of realization of calculations. Determination of tactical situation (operative directions) of ICT is one of major elements of the stage of forming of requirement specification on development of CFA. Exactly a tactical situation has given determine role and place of ICT in the process of management, connection with other ICT, forms and sources of receipt of permanent and variable information, consumers of initial information, mathematical methods, limitations and suppositions that is accepted in ICT. The operative raising of task (to the complex of tasks) is a basic document that the developer of task must follow at her creation[1].The analysis of information generators testifies in the same time, that not spared the question of forming of the operative raising of ICT the proper attention.

The article identifies the need to create basic requirements for the technological process of designing and manufacturing ammunition for small arms based on the analysis of the assets of previous years in our country and foreign countries. The basic principles of classification of ammunition for small arms are presented, the characteristics of the firing process that are necessary for further ballistic calculations are briefly analyzed, the necessary loading conditions are determined, the dynamic and ballistic characteristics of bullets are determined, their reliable functioning during firing is evaluated. The methods of calculations of the main parameters of extraction and durable characteristics of the cartridges are given. The design procedure is determined by the data on the construction and purpose of different types of cartridges, methods of testing and acceptance of products are considered. The processes of production of metal elements of ammunition for small arms are highlighted separately. It is known that the only source of supply of ammunition for small arms for the Armed Forces of Ukraine was the Luhansk Cartridge Plant, which apparently used sources and literature for the design and production of ammunition since the Soviet Union. Unfortunately, during the years of Ukraine's independence, both during the peacetime and during the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine, attention was not paid to developing requirements for the design and production of not only small arms ammunition, but also of ammunition as a whole, which is why it becomes unclear, what modern private investors rely on and use, offering and already partially meeting the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with some types of ammunition. It is no secret that the scale of the cost of ammunition for small arms, even in peacetime, counts by the billions of pieces, which requires considerable material costs not only for their production, but also for transportation, storage, and testing. Accordingly, the purpose of the article is to determine the basic requirements for the basics of design and technological process of production of ammunition for small arms, taking into account the constant development and modernization of not only the cartridges themselves, but also small arms.

In today's difficult international environment, especially in view of the situation in which Ukraine finds itself, it is necessary to note that each of the states with different social structures makes a titanic effort to prevent a nuclear war, to preserve and strengthen the peace. Engaging in peaceful construction, it is necessary to protect the defense capability of the Ukrainian state, where we have no right to allow the weakening for a second. The prospect of solving such problems lies to some extent on missile systems, as they are high-precision weapons. To accomplish these missiles, it is necessary to have a modern element base. Particularly important is the task of replacing already outdated samples of weapons with new, where the latest achievements of scientific and technical work, new approaches in design. Solid propellant rocket engines are now widespread. It has the following major advantages: high reliability, ease of use, constant readiness for action. Rocket launchers are used in all classes of modern military complexes. A variety of applications and tasks contribute to the development of a wide range of structures that differ in overall, mass, traction, time and other characteristics. When approaching such work, it is necessary to take into account the classification of this type of missiles, to analyze the requirements advanced to the missiles in terms of standard, operational and production and economic requirements. In addition, to select and justify the scheme of the rocket. Determine the type of start, engine rocket. Particular attention should be given to the determination of structural materials and the choice of the missile flight program. In the analysis of the requirements for the systems of separation of the warhead, it is necessary to consider their schematic diagrams, on the basis of which the choice of scheme for a prospective missile and the design of the mechanism of separation of the warhead. Based on the analysis and calculations, fast detachable devices were used as fasteners of the warhead: burst bolts having a sealed axial channel filled with pyrotechnic composition with a lighter. Of the possible three groups of separation mechanisms are selected pushing mechanisms that act on the warhead and the hull forces in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the rocket. As a pusher, the compartment used a spring pusher. Based on the calculations, we can say that the system compartment warhead can provide its secure attachment to the rocket body with the help of burst bolts. These mounting mechanisms are compact, small in weight, safe to operate and have a simple construction. As a mechanism of separation of the warhead can be selected by pushing the mechanisms of separation, namely - spring mechanisms, because they provide a reliable separation of the warhead and minimal disturbance of its movement in the separation process. As a result of the calculation of the mechanism of separation of the warhead, calculated the necessary and sufficient condition of the separation, its relative velocity after separation, found the necessary values of the force of pushing, providing reliable operation of the pushing mechanism.
