FOLGORE
Folgore is a lightweight recoilless rocket launcher system which
is designed to be used in the shoulder-fired, tripod mounted, or vehicle mounted
configuration without much effort in interchanging the hardware. It uses a
hollow charge warhead, delivered by a simple fin-stabilized body, and has an
effective range of from 50-700 meters.
Important!: As with any other rocket, it is important to
keep a safe launching distance. Even though the real missile represented
by our model can be shoulder-fired, to attempt this with our Folgore kit could
cause severe injuries and/or blindness! Under no circumstances should you
ever attempt to shoulder fire this rocket!
THE LAUNCH PAD's Folgore kit is two feet tall and can use
"D" through "F" motors. Although we have had several
successful test flights using the E30 series motors, the acceleration using
these motors seems a bit excessive for this lightweight rocket. We
recommend limiting your composite fuel flights to the lower thrust AeroTech E15
and F24 series motors. Even so, it really moves out!
