ABSTRACT:
A pressure gas reservoir for supplying pressure gas to control mechanisms of a projectile which is to be discharged from a gun tube by means of a propellant charge comprises a projectile body which has a reservoir therein with a wall portion which is adapted to be exposed to the pressure gases of the propellant charge and includes check valve means in the wall portion permitting the inflow of the pressure gases into the reservoir during firing for the storage therein, and for the subsequent use in operating the control mechanism. The method of operating the control mechanism of a projectile which is discharged from a gun tube, includes a projectile which has a pressure reservoir and comprises using a propellant charge in the gun tube to discharge the projectile from the gun tube and directing a portion of the gases generated by the propellant charge into the reservoir during the discharge of the projectile from the gun tube and, subsequently, using the gases in the reservoir for the control of an operating function of the projectile.
