Abstract
A projectile housing. A body of pyrotechnic material in the housing. A delay casing containing fusing material fixed to the housing fabricated of a material that looses its structural integrity in response to the heat of a fuze flame front, whereby upon impact of the projectile the casing separates permitting the burning fuze material to come in contact with and ignite the pyrotechnic. There is further provided means to release the casing from the housing upon premature or short range impact prior to the ignition of the fusing material contained therein.
