ABSTRACT:
A projectile includes an explosive charge, a corresponding initiating device, a penetrator that only deforms upon impact with a target having a predetermined mechanical resistance, an internal impact contactor arranged between the penetrator and the charge, and a device to ensure initiation of the charge following crushing of the internal impact contactor and after the explosive charge has begun to be deformed following impact on the target. The projectile is particularly effective against hard targets such as stone, brick or cement structures.
