ABSTRACT:
A projectile which is fireable in a spin-stabilized manner from a weapon barrel or launch tube through the action of the gas pressure generated by a propellant charge, and which projectile is guidable during flight. The projectile is equipped in the rearward region of its tail-end structure, and preferably behind the control surfaces, with a type of propulsion cage so as to, through the intermediary of the gas pressure generated by the propellant charge, faciliate a ballistic firing of the projectile from a weapon barrel or launch tube. The projectile is equipped with a sealing ring, which with a gliding frictional contact, coaxially encompasses an axially-limited region of the tail-end structure of the projectile.
