Suppressor compatible discarding sabot ammunition

Abstract

The presently disclosed ammunition is designed around a fared, monolithic discarding sabot that does not come apart during or after exiting the barrel and a single subcaliber flechette borne within. Because the monolithic sabot stays intact, it passes through baffles, diaphragms, wipers, and other components within a suppressor or beyond a gun barrel like a muzzle brake without damaging them or disturbing the trajectory of the flechette. The ammunition is also designed to eject the aeromechanically stable flechette following barrel exit with a set of subscale suppressor components within the sabot itself enhancing ejection, reducing tip-off disturbances, tightening circular errors probable and further suppressing acoustic signatures.
