Abstract
A projectile, e.g. a subcaliber projectile to be fired from the barrel of a weapon, comprises an elongated main body having a central bore and forming a projectile of the inertial or impact type, the bore receiving a caliber or subcaliber auxiliary projectile and an appropriate charge so that a proximity fuse on the main projectile body can fire the auxiliary projectile body in an armor breaking fashion to facilitate penetration by the main body of the armored vehicle. Both projectiles are of the impact or inertial type in which their kinetic energy enables them to pierce the armor.
