PCT No. PCT/SE80/00228 Sec. 371 Date May 14, 1981 Sec. 102(e) Date May 14, 1981 PCT Filed Sep. 25, 1980 PCT Pub. No. WO81/00908 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 2, 1981.A projectile adapted to be given a rotation on being fired which makes the projectile spin-stabilized. With the object of facilitating the terminal guidance of the projectile or increasing the effect of an explosive charge with a hollow-charge effect carried by the projectile, the projectile is provided with stabilizing fins (6-9) which are extended at a desired point in the trajectory of the projectile and brake the rotation of the projectile. The projectile is so dimensioned that its center of pressure (C2) is situated behind the center of gravity (G) of the projectile in the extended position of the fins (FIG. 2) and so that the center of pressure (C1) lies in front of the center of gravity of the projectile in the retracted position of the fins (FIG. 1), so that, with braked rotation, the projectile changes over from being spin-stabilized to being fin-stabilized. The fins (6-9), which can consist of so-called wrap-around fins, are held in the retracted position, in an embodiment shown, by covering plates (2-5) which are held in place by a so-called base bleed unit (1). A delay device is adapted to be separated from the projectile at the desired point in the trajectory, so that the covering plates (2-5) are removed and expose the fins (6-9), as a result of which these can be extended. |
