Claims (6)
1. A sabot projectile comprising support means, vanes pivotably secured to said support means, said vanes in a first position forming a substantially pyramidvshaped sabot the peak of which (as seen in direction of light)points rearwardly, and which after pivoting about an axis into a second position form a substantially resistance-free guide mechanism, the said supporting means being fixed to a tail pipe characterised thereby that the said pyramid formed by the vanes is of larger diameter than the projectile and tightly bears against the inside of a firing barrel, said vanes in the first position tightly bearing against one another under the action of the gas pressure of the propellent charge, and further characterised thereby that at the outside of the tail pipe there is provided a propelling charge being positioned behind the vanes in the first position thereof.
2. The sabot projectile as defined in claim 1 wherein said vanes are substantially planar and upon assuming their second position form together with the support means a T-guide mechanism.
3. The sabot projectile as defined in claim 1, wherein said vanes are sections of cylindrical surfaces and said vanes, upon assuming their second position, form together with the support means a T-guide mechanism.
4. The sabot projectile as defined in claim 3, wherein the axis of the cylindrical surface defined by each vane and the projectile axis are located at the same side of the vanes.
5. The sabot projectile as defined in claim 3, wherein the axis of the cylindrical surface formed by each vane and the 42229/2 projectile axis is located at opposite sides of the vanes ·
6. The sabot projectile as defined in claim 1, wherein the diameter of the projectile reduces towards the rear thereof. P. 0. Box 33116, TEL-AVIV Attorneys for Applicant -9a-
