Abstract

L’invention a pour objet un projectile sous calibré (1) de type flèche comportant un barreau (3) perforant entouré par un sabot (2) réalisé en matériau léger et permettant le tir du projectile dans une arme, barreau (3) qui est prolongé par un empennage stabilisateur (4). L’empennage (4) est relié au barreau (3) par un moyen de liaison (L) pouvant être rompu, la rupture étant initiée par un moyen de commande (11) solidaire du projectile. Le moyen de commande (11) comprend un module chronométrique qui est programmé avant tir ou lors du tir de façon à assurer la rupture du moyen de liaison (L) à une distance de référence par rapport à un objectif que l’on cherche à neutraliser. L’invention a également pour objet un procédé de neutralisation d’un objectif mettant en œuvre un tel projectile sous calibré. Figure à publier avec l’abrégé : Fig. 1The subject of the invention is a subcaliber projectile (1) of the arrow type comprising a perforating bar (3) surrounded by a sabot (2) made of light material and allowing the projectile to be fired in a weapon, bar (3) which is extended by a stabilizing empennage (4). The empennage (4) is connected to the bar (3) by a connection means (L) which can be broken, the break being initiated by a control means (11) integral with the projectile. The control means (11) comprises a chronometric module which is programmed before firing or during firing so as to ensure the rupture of the connecting means (L) at a reference distance with respect to an objective which it is sought to neutralize . The invention also relates to a method for neutralizing a target implementing such a sub-caliber projectile. Figure to be published with abstract: Fig. 1
