Abstract: A propelling charge case for a munition, which charge case has a body made of nonwoven nitrocellulose-based fibers and formed to have an axial cross section with at least one curved portion, and a reinforcement member of metal or plastic assembled with the body at the curved portion and configured to not interfere with residue-free combustion of the body.

Abstract: An improved cartridge ammunition which includes an at least partially combustible shell casing and a projectile with a fin-stabilizing tail section mounted in a neck portion of the shell casing which thereby forms a first connection between the projectile and shell casing. A second connection between the projectile and shell casing is formed by means of a support element which is form-lockingly connected to both. The shell casing has a support region axially extending forwardly inside the shell casing from its bottom. The support element being mounted on said support region and being instrumental in assuring, due to its form-locking connections, that a predetermined axial force occurs in said support of element prior to disintegration thereof, between the tail section and the support region due to gas pressure build-up in the shell casing at firing of the ammunition.

Abstract: A cartridge-type munition comprising a casing and a projectile in which the casing at least in part is constituted of combustible and destructible material. According to the invention, a first connection between the projectile and the casing is formed by a neck engaging the periphery of the projectile which is also formed with a boss or projection at its rear end engaged by radial elements forming a second connection with the casing axially spaced from the first connection.
