A projectile having a projectile body for holding a penetrator, a projectile rear, and a projectile ogive. The projectile body has a narrowed point, on which the penetrator can be supported. The narrowed point results in reliable breaking open of the projectile body when the projectile hits a target.

Projectile, in particular in the medium caliber range

A projectile that extends in the longitudinal direction and can be introduced into a cartridge by means of a casing. Moreover, the projectile has a projectile body that contains both a penetrator and an expanding medium. Characterizing the present invention, it is proposed to use metal foam, in particular air-foamed aluminum, as the expanding medium.
