Abstract

1465259 Hollow fragmentation charges FRANCE ARMED FORCES MINISTER OF 24 April 1970 [24 April 1969] 19932/70 Heading F3A In a hollow charge explosive device, the recess in the explosive charge is lined with a pyramidshaped metal casing which is ejected as a mass of splinters on firing the charge. The base of the pyramid, i.e. the mouth of the recess, may be a regular hexagon or star-shaped. The pyramid may be twisted in order to increase the solid angle over which the splinters are ejected. The fuse of the device may be offset so that the line from the fuse to the apex of the pyramid is not at right angles to the base of the pyramid. In Figs. 5-7, not shown, there are twelve recesses in one charge, each lined with a pyramid-shaped metal casing. The device may be used as the warhead in a surface-to-air or air-to-air missile.
