Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009121467A1] The invention relates to a sabot projectile having a subcaliber projectile body (2) and a sabot (3), wherein the projectile body (2) comprises a projectile sleeve (6) having an explosive charge (7) and a time-adjustable projectile igniter (10). In order to provide an arming device that is simply and robustly constructed and can be manufactured at low cost, and that can be used for stabilized subcaliber sabot projectiles (1), the invention proposes disposing a sensor (15) on or in the sabot projectile (1), said sensor generating a signal upon ablation of at least one sabot segment (4) from the projectile body (2), wherein the sensor (15) is connected to the projectile igniter (10) by an electrical connection, so that the sensor signal can be used for activating the projectile igniter (10).
