ABSTRACT:
A projectile is adapted to be launched from a barrel. The projectile incls a tubular housing and a structural member. The tubular housing has a forward inlet throat and aft nozzle. An annular layer of solid fuel combustible material is mounted within the housing between the inlet throat and nozzle. The structural member is detachably mounted over the nozzle. The structural member is sized to cover the nozzle so that pressurized gas applied to the structural member forwardly thrusts the housing. Thus, the projectile is gun-launchable and can produce a ramjet action.
