ABSTRACT:
The fin-stabilized projectile has an ogival projectile body having a nose portion and a base portion joined to a tail tube having a finned tailed unit. The nose and base portions are fixedly secured to respective ends of an internal connecting tube. The tube has a plurality of recesses disposed around the peripheral outer surface of the internal connecting tube. A bursting charge is formed along the outer peripheral surface of the connecting tube and the material used to form the bursting charge fills the recesses to provide a distribution of thrust forces along the length of the bursting charge, which is disposed between the nose and base portions.
