ABSTRACT:
Illustrative embodiments of the invention are directed to a fragmentation casing for a munition in which the size and distribution pattern of the shrapnel is carefully controlled. Typically, the casing is formed from a stacked array of rings in which angularly oriented inner and outer surface grooves form apertures at the mutual intersections. Through control of ring size, groove depth and shape, a light-weight, efficient fragmentation casing is provided in which the size, shape and bursting pattern of the resulting shrapnel is regulated in a predetermined manner.
