Abstract

The present invention relates to a fuze for a spin-stabilized projectile with a housing (2) within which there is a detonator carrier (9) that can pivot from a safety position into a firing position and which is secured in its safety position by a locking bolt (6). In order to make it possible to integrate a self-destruct unit into the fuze in a simple and cost-effective manner, the present invention proposes that the self-destruct unit (15) be arranged in the locking bolt (6) that is required to fix the detonator carrier (9) in its safety position, so that the self-destruct unit (15) is activated when the locking bolt (6) is moved from its starting position into an end position relative to the fuze housing by the inertial force that is generated when the projectile is fired, and then releases the detonator carrier (9).
