ABSTRACT:
A shaped charge with plane side surfaces, in which a booster charge is arranged above a main explosive charge, and which extends in a longitudinal direction intermediate the side surfaces. A detonation transmitter is arranged at one end or both ends of the booster charge, of which the direction of effect of which is oriented as an extension of the longitudinal direction of the booster charge. Upon the detonation of the booster charge, the detonation transmitter becomes operative and transmits the detonation to the booster charge of an adjacent positioned shaped charge. Smaller spaces or gaps between the booster charges are thereby bridged over.
