Aforesaid body front part houses one- or multilayer splitter set of finished hitting elements made from steel and tungsten-base alloys. Shape of the said elements allows their dense packing in the said set. The body has a nose cap with trajectory-contact-type nose fuse and pyrotechnical device to separate the nose cap.
