[origin: US5404816A] A releasable sabot for a subcaliber projectile. A relatively large danger zone exists for troops in which they can be injured by sabot splinters during the firing of subcaliber projectiles, with the releasable sabots, from a helically grooved weapon barrel, and in order to minimize this danger zone, the sabot of this invention is of a one piece plastic material construction and includes longitudinal slots and cooperative fracture point locations, wherein the longitudinal slots extend continuously from the sabot front end to the gastight region of the driving band, with the longitudinal slots, in cross section, having enlargements in the slot base regions.
