1. A conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector for use in an electromechanical electronics-setting circuit present within a cartridge; said cartridge comprising a case with a head assembly and a load carrying projectile fitted to said case, said projectile having programmable electronics mounted therein at its forward end,said electromechanical electronics-setting circuit designed for transmitting an electrical setting signal originating from an external fire control system through the head assembly to said programmable electronics;said projectile having a base with a conduit penetrating there-through that communicates with the payload-containing interior of the projectile through a high-pressure seat; whereinsaid conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector is insulated from said case and is slidingly seated at least partially within said high-pressure seat to effect a high-pressure seal of said conduit and prevent hot propellant gases arising upon firing of the cartridge from reaching the payload contained in the projectile while maintaining an electrically conductive path into the interior of the projectile that is insulated from said case, andwith said electromechanical circuit having a path originating from said external firing control system, to an electrode present in said head assembly, to a first conductor, to an electrically conductive container positioned at the rear of said projectile, to said spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector, to a second conductor, to a fuze contact within said projectile, to a third conductor, to said programmable electronics, returning via a surface of said cartridge to ground. 2. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein said conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector comprises an electrically-conductive spring loaded connector and an insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal, with the insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal placed between the electrically-conductive spring loaded connector and the payload. 3. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 2, wherein the insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal is conical, spherical or cylindrical in shape. 4. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein said conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector comprises a first and second electrically-conductive spring loaded connector; and a first and second insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal, such that the electromechanical circuit path includes a segment from the first conductor, to the first spring-loaded high-pressure connector, to the first insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal, to the second spring-loaded high-pressure connector, to the second insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seal, and to the second conductor. 5. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 4, wherein the first and second insulated electrically-conductive high-pressure seals are each conical, spherical or cylindrical in shape. 6. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein the circuit includes a tracer unit, base burner or rocket motor system between the first conductor and the spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector. 7. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein the electrically conductive container comprises a tracer unit. 8. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein the electrically conductive container comprises a base burner. 9. The conductive, spring-loaded high-pressure sealing connector of claim 1, wherein the electrically conductive container comprises a rocket system.
