ABSTRACT:
In a sabot projectile, a projectile core is held fast in a sabot. To the outside of the sabot a hood engaging over the projectile core is secured. To obtain a tight seal of the hood on the sabot by simple measures, particularly without a thread, the shell of the hood is designed with a sealing rim applying against a smooth annular zone of the sabot. Webs of the hood extend beyond the sealing rim. On their free ends, they are provided with inwardly projecting snap noses which engage a recess of the sabot.
