Abstract
An ignition system for an ammunition-bearing unit includes at least two casings, an inner and an outer casing, which are arranged to at least partially surround each other and are intended to undergo deformation upon striking a target and thus establish electrical contact, and a detecting unit for detecting when electrical contact is established and for, upon actual striking of the target, emitting at least one initiation signal for triggering the charge of the anmunition-bearing unit. At least one of the casings includes plurality of sections which are spaced around its periphery and which are electrically insulated from each other and, upon deformation of the casings establish an individual electrical contact with the opposite at least one part of the at least one other casing. The detecting unit distinguishes at least one electrical contact configuration effected by the sections and, as a function of this at least one configuration resulting from the contact being establish in at least two sections of the casing, generates the initiation signal or the initiation signals.
