ABSTRACT:
A plurality of radio frequency shielded electrical break wire sensors for a issile fuze circuit are peripherally positioned on the circumferential outer surface of a warhead body. A first wire sensor provides an electrical indication of contact of the warhead outer surface with a target structure and initiation of the fuze electronics in response thereto. A second printed wire sensor is operatively positioned underneath the first sensor to provide an electrical indication of an impending break-up of the warhead body structure and initiation of the missile fuze.
