The three main types were the PC 500 RS, PC 1000 RS, and PC 1800 RS. The PC in the name stands for Panzersprengbombe Cylindrisch, the number equals the approximate weight of the bomb in kilograms, and RS indicates it is rocket propelled. These bombs were intended to be used against armored ships or similar targets. The purpose of the rocket was to increase the terminal velocity of the bomb and aid penetration.[1] ConstructionThe three types were similarly constructed with a warhead, spacer, and tail sections:
OperationThe bombs are normally released from a minimum height of {{Convert|4000|ft|m|abbr=on|disp=flip}}. When the bomb is released an electrical charge is sent to the charging head. This charge is then passed on to both the pyrotechnic fuze and the impact fuze arming the bomb. The pyrotechnic delay is immediately ignited and after 3 or 4 seconds it burns through to the black powder igniter. The solid-rocket propellant burns for three seconds and produces a trail of flame {{convert|150|ft|m|abbr=on|disp=flip}} long. When the bomb hits the target its delayed action base fuze is triggered and the bomb explodes after penetrating the target. [1] Variants
