Patent abstract
In an ammunition training round having a crushable nose section, a flash system which makes an impact more visible to the user in the air or on land when the round hits a ground target. In place of a fuze ignition, the flash system utilizes incendiary energetic pellets comprising ignition pellets which burst in flames when impacted. The round may also have a nose area with a lower portion plastic plug and an upper portion fuze ogive containing the ignition pellets so that when the round impacts the ground at an angle, the upper portion of the nose area snaps off and exposes its ignition pellets to ignite from the impact.
