An interactive Gurnery Equations website: https://www.un.org/disarmament/un-saferguard/gurney/

It can also have 130g of PBXN-110 filler as well.

Edited: Article I used may have a transcribing error.

I saw a mention of this in an article but nothing on the manufacturer's site. I also don't have a RE factor for PBXN-11.

It might actually be PBXN-110 as NAMMO list this as 130 gr per SOHG module. PBXN-110 is 88% HMX and 12% HTPB-based binders. It's MP RE I'm calculating as 1.12.

I'm guessing PBXN-11 is a transcribing error by dropping the 0, as I have looked high and low for a reference to PBXN-11.

Based on your info, looks like there are actually three (3) SOHGs:

SOHG 115-3.5 - 115g Comp B; Wt. 0.0205kg, EX 268
SOHG 225-3.5 - 225g Comp B; Wt. 0.35kg, EX 525
SOHG 260-3.5 - 260g PBXN 110; Wt. 0.35kg, EX 672

The 3.5 refers to the delay.

PBXN-109 and PBXN-135 EB both have a TNT RE of 1.17. Using MP's C4 normalized RE would make it 0.87. I didn't find PBXN-110 specifically.

My current thinking is to use the 115 model. My intent was to replace the MK3A2 (0.44kg; 295 EX) and the others get pretty heavy in comparison.

115 - 1 module (0.205kg, 268 EX); 2 modules (0.41kg, 536 EX); 3 modules (0.615kg, 804 EX)
225 - 1 module (0.35kg, 525 EX); 2 modules (0.7kg, 1050 EX); 3 modules (1.05kg, 1575 EX)

The 260's overall weight is the same as the 225, just a matter of figuring the best EX value for the filler.

If you want the velocity of the fragments to calculate their EFactor, you will need to know the mass of the fragmentation body. If the link above does not have the proper explosive filler listed, I can help by using my spreadsheet.

AH! Nevermind. It's not a fragmentation type, so nothing to calculate.
