ABSTRACT:
A projectile, particularly a kinetic energy projectile, whose nose cone is cooled due to the provision of an ablation layer and a thermal insulation layer (8, 9) on the exterior of the metal hood (4) of the projectile nose cone, and due to a highly thermally conductive medium in the spaces (5, 6) between the hood (4) and the payload (3) particularly a penetrator, of the projectile.
