Abstract: The invention relates to a shell (4) intended to be placed around a fragment-generating body (2) of an ammunition (1). This shell is characterized in that it comprises an inner wall (9) having a geometry such that it can be positioned with shape matching with that of the body (2) on which it is intended to be fastened, the inner wall (9) bearing cells (11) having a profile with a closed contour secured to the wall (9) by a first end, the cells (11) not being adjoining, therefore separate from one another, all the way around their contour by a non-nil distance (d). The invention also relates to an explosive ammunition including such a shell.

Abstract: A shaped charge including an explosive load positioned in a casing, a liner applied on the load, and means ensuring the securing of the casing and the load bearing the liner. These securing means include a ring having a stop surface for the liner and at least two shims each covering an angular sector and moving radially by the action of a tightening means, to be pressed against an inner bearing surface of the casing. According to the invention, the tapped hole of the tightening screw(s) has its axis parallel to the axis of the casing and the shim is positioned axially relative to the ring by at least one radial pin authorizing sliding thereof.
