ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are a method for the ejection of sub-munitions from a projectile with null or low inherent rolling speed as well as a projectile fitted out with means enabling this method to be applied. The front part of the projectile is separated from the rear part by the shifting of a piston in a tube under the action of a pyrotechnical charge. The combination, at this piston and this tube, of grooves, working together with indentations or with a rotating band, creates a rolling motion that is sufficient to communicate an ejection speed, perpendicular to the axis of the projectile, to the sub-munitions.
