ABSTRACT:
A discarding sabot projectile is disclosed which includes a smooth cylindrical projectile core with a reduced diameter nose and a sabot surrounding the projectile. A restraint device is positioned between the front of the sabot and the nose of the core for normally preventing forward movement of the projectile core relative to the sabot and disengaging from the sabot or core in response to spin-up of the sabot projectile during firing to allow substantially unencumbered separation of the core from the sabot.
