Abstract

See full text

The method of mounting a radar reflector on an artillery shell contemplates providing a body constituted by a functional element and a sleeve element formed rotationally-symmetrical about a lengthwise axis of said body with at least one explosive device arranged at least at the neighborhood of an outer surface of said sleeve element near to one end of said sleeve element and remote from the functional element. The body is mounted on the artillery shell and the explosive device is detonated in order to establish a form-locking connection of the sleeve element with the shell. The detonation of the explosive device severs the sleeve element at the region of said one end of said sleeve element in order to provide a substantially straight-lined closure of the sleeve element about the artillery shell in order to avoid undesirably altering ballistic characteristics of the artillery shell.
