Abstract

Kalibar 5.56×45 mm upotrebljavaju zemlje članice NATO-a, dok 7.62×39 mm zemlje koje su
bile unutar Varšavskog pakta ili države koje koriste naoružanje Sovjetskog/Ruskog porijekla. U
radu se analizira koji je od ovih kalibara ima veću razornu moć. Oba metka imaju određene
prednosti: prednost zrna 7.62 mm je što proizvodi veću kinetičku energiju i većih je dimenzija,
dok je zrno 5.56 mm brže i više se fragmentira unutar mete. Mana zrna 7.62 je ta što je sporije u
odnosu na 5.56, dok je mana zrna 5.56 to što teže prolazi kroz određene materijale u odnosu na
7.62. Prilikom odabira kalibra moraju se u obzir uzeti određeni segmenti kao što su: udaljenost
mete, tvrdoća mete te kojim se naoružanjem raspolaže.

Abstract (english)

NATO members employ 5.56×45 mm caliber rifles, while 7.62 × 39 mm are used by countries
that were within the Warsaw Pact or by States using Soviet/Russian-origin weapons. The paper
analyses which one of these calibers has more destructive power. Both bullets have certain
advantages: the advantage of the 7.62 mm bullet is that it produces greater kinetic energy and is
larger in size, while the 5.56 mm bullet is faster and more fragmented inside the target. The
defect of bullet 7.62 is that it is slower than 5.56, while the defect of bullet 5.56 is that it is
harder to pass through certain materials than it is 7.62. The caliber selection shall take into
account certain segments such as target distance, target hardness, and the weapons available.
