Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0536048A1] The zone defence mine comprises an orientable launching tube (3) for firing a projectile (5) at any bearing angle, the projectile (5) containing at least one explosive charge, means (12) for setting the projectile (5) in rotation about an axis (YY) and means for detecting a target. The launching tube (3) is orientable at at least two different elevation angles, and means (20) for positioning the projectile (5) in the tube (3) making it possible to position the projectile (5) on a sabot (15) of the tube (3), in such a way that the axis of rotation (YY) of the projectile (5) remains oriented along a specific axis, whatever the selected elevation angle. <??>Such a mine can be used equally in a short-range or medium-range operating mode. <IMAGE>
