Abstract
The article reflects the morphological features of external and internal damage to the human body caused by spherical submunitions of the GMLRS type ammunition for the M270 MLRS, M142 HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems and their modifications, as well as damage to clothing. The results of x-ray examination of damage and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray analysis (SEM/EDX) of the damaging elements of the specified type of ammunition are presented. The possibility of diagnosing damage caused by spherical damaging elements of GMLRS type ammunition based on the morphological features of the damage in conjunction with x-ray examination of victims and electron microscopy with an elemental analysis of damaging elements has been shown.
