The invention relates to a subcaliber projectile, particularly for a dart projectile, having a resistance-stabilizing, conically designed guide mechanism having a frustum-shaped recess, wherein a guide cage has a substantially hollow cylindrical design in which a propulsion element is integrated therein on a rear side. To allow the propulsion element to be produced in a simple fashion and the guide cage to be lighter weight than comparable known drive cages, the propulsion element is designed substantially only as a disk-shaped metal plate extending transverse to the longitudinal axis of the guide cage, wherein the drive element is mounted on an edge in an annular groove-shaped recess of the inner wall of the guide cage, wherein the disk-shaped metal plate comprises a central through hole, the diameter of which is as large as possible, but smaller than the maximum diameter of the frustum-shaped recess of the guide mechanism.

1. A sub-caliber projectile for a dart projectile, having a drag-stabilizing, conical fin assembly provided with a truncated-conical recess, wherein the sub-caliber projectile comprises: (a) a segmented, essentially hollow-cylindrical guide sabot; and(b) a driving element connected to the guide sabo
1. A sub-caliber projectile for a dart projectile, having a drag-stabilizing, conical fin assembly provided with a truncated-conical recess, wherein the sub-caliber projectile comprises: (a) a segmented, essentially hollow-cylindrical guide sabot; and(b) a driving element connected to the guide sabot at a rear portion of the sub-caliber projectile;wherein the driving element is a flat, annular metal disk having first and second flat, parallel major surfaces that both extend transversely with respect to a longitudinal axis of the guide sabot;wherein the disk is mounted at an edge of the sub-caliber projectile in a recess, wherein the recess is an annular groove formed in an inner wall of the guide sabot;wherein the disk has a central aperture hole extending between the first and second flat, parallel major surfaces; andwherein the diameter of the central aperture hole is as large as possible but is less than a maximum diameter of the truncated-conical recess formed in the fin assembly. 2. The projectile as claimed in claim 1, wherein the fin assembly is a slotted conical fin assembly, and wherein the diameter of the central aperture hole formed in the disk is less than the maximum diameter of that portion of the truncated-conical recess formed in the fin assembly that is not provided with slots. 3. The projectile as claimed in claim 2, wherein the disk has a recess disposed on a side of the driving element facing the fin assembly of the dart projectile for interlocking accommodation of a rear end area of the fin assembly. 4. The projectile as claimed in claim 3, wherein the disk comprises a lightweight metal. 5. The projectile as claimed in claim 2, wherein the disk comprises a lightweight metal. 6. The projectile as claimed in claim 1, wherein the disk has a recess disposed on a side of the disk facing the fin assembly of the dart projectile for interlocking accommodation of a rear end area of the fin assembly. 7. The projectile as claimed in claim 6, wherein the disk comprises a lightweight metal. 8. The projectile as claimed in claim 1, wherein the disk comprises a lightweight metal. 9. The projectile as claimed in claim 1, wherein the hollow-cylindrical guide sabot comprises plastic. 10. The projectile as claimed in claim 9, wherein the plastic of the hollow-cylindrical guide sabot is a fiber-reinforced polyamide. 11. The projectile as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first and second major surfaces extend radially inward from an outer peripheral edge of the disk. 12. A sub-caliber projectile for a dart projectile, having a drag-stabilizing, conical fin assembly provided with a truncated-conical recess, wherein the sub-caliber projectile comprises: (a) a segmented, essentially hollow-cylindrical guide sabot; and(b) a driving element connected to the guide sabot at a rear portion of the sub-caliber projectile;wherein the driving element is a metal disk that extends transversely with respect to a longitudinal axis of the guide sabot,wherein the disk is mounted at an edge of the sub-caliber projectile in a recess, wherein the recess is an annular groove formed in an inner wall of the guide sabot;wherein the disk has a central aperture hole, wherein the diameter of the central aperture hole is as large as possible but is less than a maximum diameter of the truncated-conical recess formed in the fin assembly, andwherein the disk has a tubular attachment disposed at a rear portion of the disk for providing a force-fitting connection to a casing cover in order to connect the guide sabot to a projectile drive part.
