Results are presented of an experimental-theoretical investigation of the motion in water of supercavitating strikers made of steel and aluminum and tungsten (TNI, i.e., tungsten, nickel, and iron) alloys in a broad velocity range. Estimates have been made of the ranges of velocities of entry into water in which the investigated supercavitating strikers from various materials are not destroyed and preserve the original shape. Experimental and computational data have been obtained on the value of deviation of the trajectories of two simultaneously starting from each other supercavitating strikers at the initial stage of their group motion in water depending on the materials they are made of.
