ABSTRACT:
A cartridge case and nozzle assembly is made from a single element of a lightweight durable polymer resin. The cartridge case and nozzle insert into a launch tube of an anti-armor projectile launcher and have improved adhesive connection to reduce relative movement between the assembly and the launch tube. Improved tolerances and better matching of the assembly and the launch tube provide improved reliability for firing. The adhesive connection prevents the launch tube from being reused by adversaries.
