Abstract (en)
A projectile is obtained that expands when it hits the target, as it has a spherical element placed at the end of the conical area of greater hardness and toughness than the rest of the projectile and has a perforation that goes from the tip of the conical area to the base of the conical area, comprising a cylindrical body (1) which at one end thereof continues with a decreasing diameter forming a conical area (2) which is finished at its tip with a spherical element (3), where the conical body (2) has a perforation (4) which runs approximately from the base of the conical area (2) to the free end of the conical area (2) and where the spherical element (3) is attached, where both the cylindrical body (1) and the conical zone (2), except for the perforation (4) made in the conical area (2) are solid, on the other hand, the spherical element (3) is made of a harder and tougher material than the material used in the manufacture of the cylindrical body (1) and the conical zone (2) and the diameter of the spherical element (3) is larger than the diameter of the perforation (4).
