The invention provides a filler material for a munition, including an explosive charge, an inert charge and at least one pyrotechnic transmission unit adapted to transmit a remotely initiated detonation to said explosive charge. The invention also concerns a munition incorporating said filler material, said munition including a hollow elongate casing suitable for housing the explosive charge and the inert charge, and a firing device, at least a portion of the inert charge being interposed between the firing device and said explosive charge, and the pyrotechnic transmission unit being provided with a pyrotechnic extension and coupling the firing device to the explosive charge in order to prime detonation of the explosive charge under the action of the firing device.
A munition comprising an elongate casing extending along an axis and housing an explosive charge and an inert charge, and further comprising a firing device, the munition wherein at least a portion of the inert charge is interposed between the firing device and said explosive charge, and in that said munition further comprises at least one pyrotechnic transmission unit provided with a pyrotechnic extension, said pyrotechnic transmission unit coupling the firing device to the explosive charge to allow said explosive charge to be detonated by the action of the firing device.
