Abstract

Grenade, 40mm X 53, high velocity, dual purpose (combat and piercing/penetrating) , consisting of the cartridge case (22) , the projectile (27 - 33) and the fuze (21) . The liner (29) bears grooves (29.1 and 29.2) , which ensure the creation of a symmetrical plasma jet. The geometry of the grooves (33.1 ) of the separate pre-fragmented steel jacket (33) , which is encased in the aluminum body (32) of the projectile, ensures the maximum fragmentation. The form and the material of the rotating band (27) , as well as the geometry (27.1, 27.2 and 27.3) of its fitting on the grooves of the aluminum projectile body (32) ensure the maximum strength of the rotating band.
