In relation to the TPC for handling irradiated fuel assemblies of the BREST-OD-300 reactor plant, the results of calculations by the finite element method on the choice of the design of the striker (throwing body), providing an impact equivalent to the impact of the Phantom RF-4E fighter-bomber, are presented. The parameters of the shock pulse were evaluated on models of various scales. Tests simulating the impact of a striker at a speed of 215 m/sec on the body of a TPC, on targets with a thickness of 25, 15 and 7.5 mm, were carried out using an 80 mm pneumatic cannon. It is shown that the thickness of the walls of the TPC hull ensures the integrity of the structure when the engine of the Phantom RF-4E fighter-bomber strikes.
