Abstract

See full text

The sabot (16) relates to a projectile (11) which can be accelerated in an accelerator comprising a tubular preaccelerator followed by RAM acceleration tubes. It consists of an outer band (18) which is designed in a way to be attached to the radial fins (13) at the rear of the projectile (11) and to support the peripheral sealing elements (25) and a subcaliber base plate (31) of relatively small thickness, which is designed in such a way that it rests on the outer band (18) with its perimeter, and if necessary on the projectile base (7) with its center part, and that it separates from the projectile (11) and the outer band (18) before the projectile (11) enters into the acceleration tubes.
