ABSTRACT:
A segmented ejectable payload container is arranged to provide improved protection against axial separation of its segments during the firing operation. The container is formed as a hollow shell, with its outer jacket formed integral with a bottom end plate whose outer surface is recessed to receive an outwardly extending flange of an inner container jacket. The other end of the opposed jackets is removably closed by means of a threaded end plate. A second flange on the inner jacket is received in a corresponding recess of the second end plate when such end plate is in operative position. The interfaces between the flanges on the inner jackets and the recesses in the respective end plates are closed by means of a radially disposed seal. The depth of such recesses is chosen so that the outer surface of each end plate projects beyond the adjacent surface of the associated flange.
