A kinetic fireball incendiary munition is provided having an outer shell or bomb casing, one or more incendiary sub munitions therein, and an igniter therefore. Each of the submunitions includes an incendiary portion, at least one rocket motor that propels the submunition inside of a target volume, and an oxidizer for the incendiary portion and rocket motor. The submunitions liberate sufficient heat to produce elevated temperatures inside of a target structure to thermalize the contents thereof without creating a substantial overpressure or explosive effect.

1. A system for thermalizing an interior volume of a target structure, comprising: a plurality of incendiary munitions, each incendiary munition including an incendiary portion, an oxidizer for the incendiary portion, a fuse that initiates an ignition event, an insulation layer surrounding the incendiary portion, and an insulating lubricant layer disposed between the incendiary portion and the insulation layer; andthe incendiary munitions are configured to ignite sequentially, wherein: a first one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite first; anda second one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite a delay time after the first munition ignites. 2. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a third one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite a delay time after the second munition ignites. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the incendiary munitions are configured such that the interior volume of the target structure is heated to a temperature of over 1000 ° F. that is maintained for a period of time. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the period of time is at least five minutes. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein each incendiary munition includes a bottom surface that faces towards a floor of the target structure so that when the incendiary munition is ignited, a mass flow is directed from the bottom surface toward the floor. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the mass flow levitates the incendiary munitions above the floor. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein each incendiary munition is disk-shaped. 8. The system of claim 5, wherein a portion of the insulation layer surrounding the bottom surface of each incendiary portion is configured to be blown away to expose the bottom surface of each incendiary portion. 9. The system of claim 5, wherein the bottom surface is flat. 10. The system of claim 1, wherein the insulation layer comprises a polymer binder and wherein the insulation layer does not contain phosphorous, boron, magnesium, aluminum, liquid fluorocarbon-aluminum or BKNO3. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the polymer binder is hydroxy terminated polybutadiene. 12. A system for thermalizing an interior volume of a target structure, comprising: a plurality of incendiary munitions, each incendiary munition including an incendiary portion, an oxidizer for the incendiary portion, and a fuse that initiates an ignition event; and the incendiary munitions are configured to ignite sequentially relative to insertion into the target structure, wherein: a first one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite first following insertion into the target structure; and a second one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite a delay time after the first munition ignites, a third one of the plurality of munitions is configured to ignite a delay time after the second munition ignites; and wherein the delay time of the second one of the plurality of munitions is greater than the time over which the first one of the plurality of munitions is active, and the delay time of the third one of the plurality of munitions is greater than the period of time over which the second one of the plurality of munitions is active. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein the incendiary munitions are configured such that the interior volume of the target structure is heated to a temperature of over 1000 ° F. that is maintained for a period of time. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the period of time is at least five minutes. 15. The system of claim 12, wherein each incendiary munition includes a bottom surface that faces towards a floor of the target structure so that when the incendiary munition is ignited, a mass flow is directed from the bottom surface toward the floor. 16. The system of claim 15, wherein the mass flow levitates the incendiary munitions above the floor. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein each incendiary munition is disk-shaped. 18. The system of claim 15, further comprising, for each incendiary munition, an insulation layer is disposed over the bottom surface, and the insulation layer of each incendiary munition is configured to be blown away to expose the bottom surface of each incendiary munition. 19. The system of claim 15, wherein the bottom surface is flat.
