Abstract

An air deflector is provided for the air inlet means of a fuze ogive. The flector comprises a stationary deflecting surface which is configured so as to substantially reduce the amount of air entering the ogive during high velocity flight, while not substantially reducing the air inflow during relatively low velocity flight.
