ABSTRACT:
Caseless ammunition for cannons, in particular automatic weapons with a selective single or bipartitioned cartridge chamber into which a projectile and a propellent charge are separately introduceable. The ammunition consists of a projectile member with a directly attached, fixedly interconnected propellent charge, and which is completed through a base detonator fuse which is separate from the projectile. The separation between the base detonator fuse and the projectile is undertaken in such a manner that, for the longest employed shell there are always formed two approximately equally lengthy parts.
