Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021217222A2] The invention relates to ammunition with axial-cumulative initiation, which is used in military equipment and especially in the production of ammunition. Ammunition with axial cumulative initiation, subject of the invention are characterized by increased destructive ability, providing significant destruction of a larger target area. They are particularly suitable for use in high-explosive fragmentation projectiles, as they are designed so that small-caliber cumulative elements are located along the axis of the ammunition and are aimed at the main explosive element. Ammunition with axial-cumulative initiation consists of a casing, a frontal fuse device and an explosive charge of the projectile located in the casing, characterized in that behind the frontal fuse device (2) is mounted a fixed transition sleeve (3) with a small-caliber cumulative element (4) located in it, consisting of a cumulative charge (6), a cumulative layer (7) and a screen (8), as the cumulative element (4) is located on the axis of the casing (1) of the projectile and is oriented to the high explosive charge (5).
