1. A method of defeating a target containing a flammable or explosive fill, the method comprising: applying an acceleration pulse to a projectile containing a non-detonating incendiary composition, thereby providing an increase in velocity to the projectile;igniting the non-detonating incendiary composition using an inertial ignition system during or at about termination of the acceleration pulse and before penetrating a target;penetrating a target containing a flammable or explosive fill with the projectile containing the ignited non-detonating incendiary composition; andigniting and/or detonating the flammable or explosive fill of the target with heat and/or flame from the ignited non-detonating incendiary composition. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the non-detonating incendiary composition is selected from the group consisting of composite propellants, thermites, thermates, and intermetallics. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the non-detonating incendiary composition is selected from the group consisting of Ti/B, Ti/B/Viton A, B/Zr, Al/B, C/Ti, Mg/S, Al/CuO, Zr/CuO, Mg/CuO, Ti/CuO, B/CuO, Al/Fe2O3, Ti/Fe2O3, Mg/Fe2O3, Zr/Fe2O3, Zr/MnO2, Mg/Al/KClO4, Si/Zr/Fe2O3/KClO4/NaSiO4, Si/Zr/Fe2O3/KClO4/Viton A, Ti/B/BaCrO4, NH4ClO4/Al/hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene, NH4ClO4/hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene, NH4NO3/epoxy, NH4ClO4/Al/polysulfide, NH4ClO4/polysulfide, NH4ClO4/Al/polyvinyl chloride, NH4ClO4/polyvinyl chloride, NH4ClO4/Al/carboxy-terminated polybutadiene, NH4ClO4/carboxy-terminated polybutadiene, NH4NO3/isoprene rubber, and NH4NO3/cellulose acetate. 4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the non-detonating incendiary composition is a thermite or an intermetallic composition. 5. The method according to claim 3, wherein the non-detonating incendiary composition is an intermetallic Ti/B composition. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein gas is produced upon ignition of the non-detonating incendiary composition. 7. The method according to claim 6, wherein the non-detonating incendiary composition is a composite propellant. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein substantially no gas is produced upon ignition of the non-detonating incendiary composition. 9. The method according to claim 1, further comprising providing the acceleration pulse with a gas generator or propellant charge. 10. The method according to claim 1, further comprising applying the acceleration pulse to a plurality of projectiles containing a non-detonating incendiary composition, and igniting the non-detonating incendiary composition in the projectiles during or at about termination of the acceleration pulse and before penetrating a target. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein ignition of the incendiary composition occurs upon impact of the projectile when ignition does not occur during or at about termination of the acceleration pulse in any one of the plurality of projectiles. 12. The method according to claim 11, wherein the ignition of the incendiary composition occurs upon impact with an overburden. 13. The method according to claim 11, wherein the ignition of the incendiary composition occurs upon impact with the target. 14. The method according to claim 10, wherein at least a portion of the projectiles penetrate different targets. 15. The method according to claim 14, wherein the primary targets are mines in a minefield, in a surf zone, or under water. 16. The method according to claim 10, wherein the plurality of projectiles are directed to a target field before the acceleration pulse, and dispersed over the target field at the end of or after the acceleration pulse. 17. The method according to claim 1, wherein the projectile remains within the target after penetrating the target. 18. The method according to claim 1, further comprising igniting the non-detonating incendiary composition with an inertial ignition system at about termination of the acceleration pulse.
