Abstract (en)
[origin: US4776280A] In a sabot projectile the sabot must immediately detach from the projectile body upon exit of the projectile from the barrel muzzle of the firing weapon without the flight stability of the projectile body being impaired. For this purpose the sabot rear portion must fracture or break along the provided reference fracture locations. According to the invention the reference fracture locations are constructed such that the sabot positively fractures or breaks along the reference fracture locations. Hence, the heretofore conventional reference fracture locations are structured more reliably by the provision of one or more additional bores.
