System of self - destruction of a munition, in particular of a munition under - cargo warhead by chemical attack.

摘要

The self destruct system for the explosive consists of a secondary firing pin (15) mounted inside a housing (5b) in the sliding unit (5) that moves the detonator (6) from its safety position to its armed position in line with the main firing pin. A control device (16) releases the secondary firing pin (15) after a predetermined delay when a corrosive agent (30) attacks the retaining element (25) that holds the sec. firing pin (15) against its seat (28) by an arming spring (26).
