Abstract

A method and system for simulating weapon fire includes a fixture having first and second faces. A mounting plate adapted to receive a component for testing of the component may be coupled with the first face. In a particular embodiment, a first pneumatic hammer may be coupled with the second face, the pneumatic hammer being operable to subject the component to shock pulses. A second pneumatic hammer may be coupled with the second face. The first and second pneumatic hammers may be configured to subject the component to at least two shock pulses simultaneously.
