ABSTRACT:
A warhead which is deliverable through the intermediary of a carrier, and which incorporates aerodynamic guiding and braking media and forwardly oriented striking pins for initiating a detonating information for an explosive which is contained or dammed by a hollow-cylindrical wall structure with shallow-concavely curved coverings. The coverings are designed for a fragmentation angle which increases upwardly from below along their projectile directions of flight or trajectories, and in which a firing and pin is imparted a responding threshold which leads to the initiation of the detonating information only under a relatively hard impact.
