ABSTRACT:
A hollow charge ammunition particularly for dispersive weapons comprises a hollow charge having a forward end face with a recess and with a barb-forming liner in the recess overlying the end face. A folded member, such as a bellows-like structure is disposed in the recess and extends across the end face and it is unfoldable into an aerodynamically-formed stable structure extending outwardly forwardly of the recess. The device includes means such as a compressed gas for unfolding the member into the outwardly extending position at which it forms an aerodynamic surface.
