ISSN 0722-4087.Insensitive ammunition is intended to reduce the collateral damage that, for instance, occurs as a result of fire or bullet impact on ammunition during transport and storage in battle field environments. In the framework of the project »Insensitive Munitions & Ageing« of the European Defense Agency (EDA) researchers were investigating the aging of a variety of energetic materials with respect to changes in sensitivity against thermal and shock impact threads. Six contributing European countries worked together on this project: France (was also project-leading country), Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Czech Republic. This paper presents the German part.
