摘要 |
The disclosure relates to a submunition disposed to be separated from an aeronautical body, for example a shell carrier canister or the like above a target area, the submunition essentially including a warhead (5), a target detector (6) and a device which imparts to the submunition rotation for scanning the target area in a helical pattern (4) during the fall of the submunition towards the target area. The target detector (6) is pivotally disposed on a carrying shaft (12a) parallel to the line of symmetry (5a) of the warhead in order to permit outward activation of the target detector (6) from a collapsed position where the optical axis of the target detector coincides with the line of symmetry (5a) of the warhead to an activated position where the optical axis of the target detector is parallel with the line of symmetry (5a) of the warhead, so as to permit free scanning vision for the target detector (6) beside the warhead (5). |
