Wolfdieter Hans-Jochem Mohaupt, known as Heinrich Mohaupt, in the U.S. Henry (Hans) Mohaupt (August 16, 1915 – May 20, 2001) was a Swiss American inventor. He first demonstrated and exhibited shaped charge warheads internationally before the Second World War. Prior to 1939, Mohaupt demonstrated his invention to British and French ordnance authorities. Concurrent development by the German group of Cranz, Schardin, and Thomanek led to the first documented use of shaped charges in warfare, in a successful assault on the fort of Eben Emael, on 10 May 1940.

  • Wolfdieter Hans-Jochem Mohaupt, genannt Heinrich Mohaupt, in den USA Henry (Hans) Mohaupt (* 16. August 1915 in Egg ZH; † 20. Mai 2001 in Santa Barbara) war ein schweizamerikanischer Erfinder. Er erkannte als einer der ersten den Wert des Auskleidungseffekts bei Hohlladungen. Die Ausnutzung dieses Effekts führte zur Entwicklung von neuartiger panzerbrechender Munition im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Danach setzte er seine Erfindertätigkeit auf dem Gebiet der Erdöl- und Erdgasförderung fort. (de)

Claims for priority of invention are difficult to resolve due to subsequent historic interpretations, secrecy, espionage, and international commercial interest. (en)
