Infantry projectile with internal stabiliser - has internal inclined channel with additional rolling mass ensuring trimming action

摘要

The infantry projectile is used for ground targets. It is aerodynamically stabilised and has an internal rolling trimming arrangement ensuring a straight trajectory. The projectile is automatically returned into its normal trajectory in case of deviations. The projectile (1) has a centre of gravity (S1) and inclined channel with additional mass (11). The centre of gravity (S) of the projectile is situated on the longitudinal axis (6) and near the projectile nose. The additional mass can be moved into position below this axis. This additional mass is held firmly on launching and is able to move in the inclined channel afterwards.
