ABSTRACT:
A kinetic energy rod warhead includes a projectile core which includes a plurality of projectiles and an explosive charge about the core. There is at least one detonator for the explosive charge, and at least one wave shaper in the explosive charge or between the explosive charge and the core and having an apex adjacent the detonator.
