The following article summarizes the development of the base flow technique in Sweden. Extensive theoretical and experimental studies have been made in cooperation between the Research Institute of National Defence (FOA) and the Swedish Naval Materiel Department (FMV‐M). Base Bleed gives a significant increase in range and reduces the dispersion. The increase in range is obviously depending on the volume made available for the unit. At firing tests an increase in range of 25% has been achieved due to the base flow effect.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
