Results are presented from experimental studies of the implosion of cylindrical kapron fiber arrays with addition of high- and medium-Z metal wires (tungsten, aluminum). The experiments were carried out on the Angara-5-1 facility at currents of 3-4 MA. The ablation rate in kapron fiber arrays is estimated and compared with that in tungsten wire arrays.
