Abstract (en)

[origin: KR20210143674A] The present invention relates to a sub-caliber projectile (1) of a kinetic energy type, which is able to launch a projectile from a weapon while including a penetrator (3) surrounded by a cover (2) made of lightweight materials. The penetrator (3) is extended by a stabilization tail (4). The tail (4) is connected to the penetrator (3) by a connection means (L) which can be damaged. The damage starts by a control means (11) integrated with the projectile. The control means (11) is connected to a programming interface, and includes a timing module programmed before or during a launch, thereby guaranteeing the damage of the connection means (L) at a reference distance for the target to be neutralized. The present invention relates to a method for neutralizing a target by using such a sub-caliber projectile.
