The test set‐up for recording a shaped charge jet by the orthogonal synchro‐streak technique (OSST) is described. By means of an example it is shown how the information on the deviation of the jet elements in X, Y‐ and in polar co‐ordinates as well as that on the length of the jet and on the times of particulation can be extracted from the streak record.
