ABSTRACT:
A projectile assembly includes a spin-stabilized carrier projectile having a carrier casing and a base at one end of the casing; and a sub-ammunition assembly composed of a plurality of sub-ammunition components stacked to form a column. One of the components is an end component adjoining the base. A component surface of the end component is oriented towards and is in engagement with the base surface. At least two of the components are sub-ammunition projectiles. An arrangement maintains a frictional lock between the base surface and the component surface of the end component. According to the arrangement a portion of the base surface and a portion of the component surface of the end component have high coefficients of friction.
