Abstract
An electronic programming system is for programmable ammunitions 'M' implemented in a firearm (). The system is adapted to send information to a detonating fuse of an ammunition 'M', which stores the information inside it, and is adapted to receive information on the characteristics of the ammunition “M” from the detonating fuse. The programming system is directly implemented inside a firearm, including at least one firearm-control unit, adapted to control all the systems implemented in the firearm. The electronic programming system includes at least one actuation mechanism, adapted to provide an electrical coupling between the detonating fuse and the programming system, and a programmer-control device, which, via appropriate interfaces, manages the data flows for communication both with the detonating fuse and with firearm-control unit
