ABSTRACT:
An electronic switch for projectiles includes a circuit with a source of electric energy which is switched in when the projectile is discharged. The circuit includes an adjustable time-delay device for the explosion of the projectile, a device for preventing muzzle burst, and a self-destruct arrangement. The exploding fuse is connected to the source of energy by an impact or a proximity switch. The self-destruct arrangement is settable by cooperating cells carried by the projectile and by the barrel of the gun.
