👉 Arms engineering is a specialized field within mechanical and systems engineering that focuses on the design, development, and maintenance of complex mechanical systems for military applications, particularly those involving armaments. This includes the creation of mechanisms for weapons like cannons, missiles, and other projectiles, as well as the integration of these systems with vehicles such as tanks, aircraft, and ships. Arms engineers must consider factors like precision, reliability, weight, and durability to ensure that weapons perform optimally under extreme conditions. They also need to adhere to stringent safety standards and regulations, often working in highly dynamic and challenging environments. The field requires a deep understanding of materials science, thermodynamics, kinematics, and control systems, along with advanced simulation and testing techniques to refine and validate designs before deployment.
