Abstract: The invention relates to an ammunition, especially for artillery, comprising a projectile (1) connected to a case (10) containing a propellant charge (11). It comprises a ring (12) made of a material combustible or easily fragmentable under the effect of the pressure attributable to the combustion of the propellant charge and fixed to the projectile (1) by a connecting means, its lateral surface (15) being matched to the inner surface (14) of the case. The projectile (1) consists of a sabot (3) carrying a sub-projectile (2) and the connecting means then consists of a surface of the ring having form correspondence (17, 18) with part of the sub-projectile (2). The ring (12) has a shoulder (19) gripped between the sub-projectile (2) and the sabot (3). The ring (12) is fixed to the case (10) in the region of its lateral surface (15) by a fastening means consisting of a crimping of the case on the lateral surface (15). The invention is used for high-calibre ammunition of the sweptback type possessing a slipping girdle.

Abstract: Method and device for searching for a characteristic grouping of data which is periodically inserted into a flow of successively transmitted data. Memory-storage means (7) temporarily store the received data sequence corresponding to the minimum subset necessarily including the grouping sought. Comparator means (8) search for a reference element relating to the grouping sought in a preselected area consisting of one of the modules subdividing the stored subset. The search is carried on module by module, until a group of data identical to the reference element is identified. Means (11) store the position of any group which is identical to the reference element in the module where such a group has been identified. A confirmation search makes it possible to eliminate the positions of the groups which are not subsequently found again, only the position of the last group present remaining, which is considered as the reference sought.
