Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0203014A1] The invention concerns an avalanche triggering projectile designed to be fired from a launching tube. Said projectile comprises a shell (2) designed to explode proximate to or in contact with the snow by the action of triggering means to provoke an avalanche. The shell (2) is adapted to be pressurised when fired and/or on its trajectory, the resulting pressurisation of the shell being insufficient to ensure on its own the shell explosion, other means are designed to provide the shell with excess pressure and hence ensure its explosion.
