Abstract
Method and arrangement for extending the range of fire of a fin-stabilized artillery missile. The fin-stabilized artillery missile (1), which is fired in a ballistic trajectory, has fins (3-6), which have been given a sawtooth-shaped leading wing edge (7) that has been found to give the missile (1) an extended range of fire and improved manoeuvrability.
