ABSTRACT:
Ever greater demands in terms of mechanical strength and gas tightness are being made on the connection between the rear part and the casing of a sabot for a projectile. To improve this connection a circumferential groove is provided in the rear part of the sabot into which protrudes a rotating band of the sabot casing which band contacts the barrel rifling to spin or rotate the projectile. The circumferential groove and the rotating band anchored therein exhibit a dovetailed cross-section which prevents the rotating band from slipping out of the circumferential groove. The rotating band is linked to the casing via a predetermined break point.
