A projectile has a nose portion and a body portion. A plurality of winged, fin-stabilized flechettes are releasably mounted in the body portion. Each flechette is mounted with its longitudinal axis at a pre-set pitch to a longitudinal axis of the projectile. In use, with the projectile moving on a projectile trajectory, each released flechette follows a respective trajectory parallel to and at a predetermined distance from the projectile trajectory. The predetermined distance for each flechette is determined by its pre-set pitch to the longitudinal axis of the projectile.

A projectile having a nose portion and a body portion, said projectile comprising a plurality of winged, fin-stabilised flechettes mounted in said body portion wherein each flechette is mounted with its longitudinal axis at a pre-set pitch to a longitudinal axis of said projectile, the projectile further comprising means for releasing each flechette, the releasing means allowing each flechette to lift off the projectile without any additional lateral force, whereby, in use, with the projectile moving on a projectile trajectory, each released flechette flows a respective trajectory parallel to and at a predetermined distance from said projectile trajectory, said predetermined distance being determined by said pre-set pitch.
