ABSTRACT:
Increasingly greater requirements as concerns mechanical strength and gas tightness are placed upon the connection between the sabot tail or rear portion and the sabot jacket of a sabot projectile. To improve such connection the invention provides a circumferential groove at the sabot tail or rear portion, this circumferential groove having side walls extending essentially parallel to one another and inclined forwardly with respect to the lengthwise axis of the projectile at an angle of about 75.degree.. The rear end of the sabot jacket protrudes into such circumferential groove.
