The fin assembly () includes a tapped tube () which engages on a threaded rear cylindrical shank () of a tail () connected to the projectile body (), thereby forming a threaded mechanical connection () between the tail unit () and the body (). This projectile () is characterized in that it includes means ensuring the fragilization of the threaded connection () on impact on a target, the fin assembly then separating from the projectile body.
