A separating device is integrated in ammunition, with which a line is separated at the earliest possible time during a firing process. The separating device is composed mainly of a piston, which preferably has a sharp edge, is guided in a rigidly mounted cylinder, and, in the unloaded state, is positioned by a shear flange. The cable is preferably securely supported in a protective tube which is connected with a propellant charge primer, and in which the cable is guided as far as the tip of the propellant charge primer and is then further guided to the rear end of the projectile. In the upper area of the cylinder, the cable is guided through a bore, which preferably lies transversely to the direction of acceleration of the piston, so that when the piston moves forward, the cable is separated by the sharp edge of the piston.

The invention claimed is: 1. Ammunition, comprising: a shell; a projectile; an electronic fuse arranged in the projectile; at least one propellant charge primer integrated in a propulsion system, the propellant charge primer being arranged in the shell and having a line or a cable by which electric power and/or data is supplied to the electronic fuse in the projectile; and a separating device operatively mounted on a tip of the propellant charge primer for separating the line or cable, the separating device including a piston guided in a rigidly mounted cylinder so as to be movable forward toward the projectile. 2. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, and further comprising a protective tube connected with the propellant charge primer and in which the cable is securely supported and guided as far as the tip of the propellant charge primer, and the cable extending to a rear end of the projectile. 3. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, wherein the separating device is screwed onto a primer tube. 4. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, wherein the piston has a sharp edge. 5. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, and further comprising a shear flange arranged to position the piston in an unloaded state. 6. The ammunition in accordance with claim 4, wherein a bore is provided in an upper area of the cylinder, the cable being guided through the bore so that when the piston moves forward the cable is separated by the sharp edge of the piston. 7. The ammunition in accordance with claim 6, wherein the bore lies transversely to a direction of acceleration of the piston. 8. The ammunition in accordance with claim 5, wherein a through-bore is arranged in the propellant charge primer so that an applied internal pressure of the propellant charge primer acts on the piston through the through-bore when strength of the shear flange is exceeded. 9. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, wherein the cylinder has a diameter reduction provided so as to stop movement of the piston. 10. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, wherein the propellant charge primer has a screw plug, the cylinder and the piston being integrated in the screw plug of the propellant charge primer, the screw plug being mounted on an end face of the propellant charge primer. 11. The ammunition in accordance with claim 10, wherein the piston and the cylinder are held in and anchored with the screw plug by parts that are screwed on or inserted. 12. The ammunition in accordance with claim 11, wherein the piston and the cylinder are held in and anchored with the screw plug by a screw cap and a bushing. 13. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, wherein free spaces present for working through the cable and the separating device are filled in with a liquid, curable compound. 14. The ammunition in accordance with claim 1, and further comprising a sealing element incorporated in or below the piston to seal an interior of the propellant charge primer and/or to protect against moisture.
