In modern conditions, lightarmored vehicles with powerful weapon modules are widely used in the armies of different countries. These modules are equipped with small-caliber automatic cannons, which have a rate of fire of several hundred rounds per minute and a high level of recoil forces. Moreover, there are tendencies towards an increase in the rate of fire and the caliber of weapons (and, accordingly, recoil forces). Considering that weapon modules rely on the lightarmored vehicles skeleton, which has higher responsiveness characteristics than heavy combat vehicles in terms of weight, the problem of determining the reaction of the «weapon module - armored hull - suspension» system to the action of recoil forces in order to ensure on the one hand, the strength of armored hulls, and on the other hand, reducing the load on the guidance and stabilization system of weapons during firing.To study the response of elements of lightly armored vehicles to the action of recoil forces when firing a burst of combat modules, numerous models have been built with a small number of degrees of freedom. Using these models, the reaction of a dynamic system to the action of a number of impulses was investigated.These impulses caused by the action of recoil forces when firing shots from combat modules.
