Aerodynamic Dissemination

Aerodynamic dissemination technology allows nonexplosive delivery from a line source. Although this method provides a theoretical c ability of controlling the size of the particle, the altitude of dissemination must be controlled and the wind direction and velocity known. Accurate weather observations can enable the attacker to predict wind direction and velocity in the target area. [Pg.20]

A more recent attempt to control aerosol particle size on target has been the use of aerodynamic dissemination and sprays as line sources. Thermal dissemination, wherein pyrotechnics are used to aerosolize the agent has been used particularly to generate fine, inhalable clouds of incapacitants. Dispersion considers the relative placement of the chemical agent munition upon or adjacent to a target immediately before dissemination so that the material is most efficiently used. [Pg.20]
