Abstract
A medium calibre gyro-stabilized anti-air shell intended to produce a spray of sub-projectiles, wherein it includes an ogive shaped nose cone extended by a case tube and a central pin delimiting with the case tube a housing enclosing sub-projectiles, a casing covering the case tube attached, by an upstream thread at its front end, to a flange on the nose cone and attached by a downstream thread at its rear end onto a rear end cap enclosing an air burst charge, translation means being positioned between the rear end cap and the case tube so as to ensure the shearing of the upstream and downstream threads.
