ROCKET FOR A PROJECTILE INTENDED TO BE FIRED BY A CANNON

摘要

The aim of the invention is a rocket (11) for a projectile intended to be fired by a cannon by lighting a propelling charge using an electric ignitor (6). This rocket (11) can transition from a safety position to an armed position post-firing by removing at least two different safeties. This rocket (11) is characterised in that it comprises a capacitor (20) that is intended to be connected to the electric ignitor (6) and that charges when the propelling charge is ignited, and also a computer (18) that detects the charge of the capacitor (20) to allow the rocket (11) to be armed when this charge is above or equal to a reference value, with the charge of the capacitor (20) constituting a first firing safety.
