Abstract
A warhead for enclosing an explosive charge includes a casing for surrounding the charge. The casing has an end presenting a frontal face. A liner having a circumferential area for attachment to the end of the casing and a coefficient of thermal expansion .alpha..sub.R is fastened to the casing by way of an intermediate ring connected to the circumferential area of the liner. The intermediate ring has a portion which is brought around the frontal face of the casing and which has a pressure face which presses against the exterior of the casing. The liner has a coefficient of thermal expansion .alpha..sub.E which is at least as great as the coefficient of thermal expansion .alpha..sub.R of the intermediate ring.
