ABSTRACT:
A projectile forming the head of a carrier has a defined balllistic trajectory and contains sub-munitions ejected, at a given moment in the trajectory of the projectile, in a controlled direction. In the projectile, the sub-munitions are arranged so as to have a single direction, namely with the head of the sub-munition facing the front of the projectile, in one or more rows. In each row, the shells of the sub-munitions are tangential to one another and their fin systems ar placed in one another in a self-locking way. The projectile further comprises securing means among the sub-munitions and between these interstitial spaces are further filled with a powdery material.
