Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0583642A1] In house-to-house fighting, a sniper who is seated in a concealed position with his rifle can cover an entire road and there is thus scarcely any possibility of effectively engaging the sniper. The warhead (1) according to the invention which is integrated in a versatile manner, for example in a Panzerfaust (standard German army anti-tank weapon) (30) is able to fire through the wall (50) which is protecting the sniper. A shaped charge (10) is used for this purpose which produces a firing channel (51) in the wall for a follow-up charge (20). The follow-up charge (20) is constructed as a fragmentation round. The follow-up charge (20) produces fragments behind the wall. <IMAGE>
