This paper presents a system that measures the acceleration of the shock caused by the explosion of the precursor warhead for the tandem projectile. The proposed system, which is implemented based on the MIL-STD-810G, Method 517.1, consists of a miniaturized shock measurement device, a cable, accelerometers, and a trigger circuit. The shock measurement device has a size of ¢102 x 171 mm and cable has a length of 3 m. The operational confirmation test is conducted by implementing the measurement

Through measurement analysis, one can predict the damage of electronics in projectile when precursor warhead is exploded.
