摘要

A fin stabilised projectile comprises a body (2) with guide vanes (3). The front (5) of the projectile has a detonator (6), and a separating charge (4) is located near the vanes. The detonator and charge are connected to an electronic circuit (7) which activates the separating charge when the projectile is near its target, so the guide vanes are blown off before impact.
