ABSTRACT It comprises a cylindrical body 1 which is intended to be fixed on an explosive projectile. A detona- tor 12 comprising a casing means 13 whose rearward portion serves as armour plating means 13' is mounted slidably in a casing 11 which is fixed coaxially in the cylindrical body, from an inactive position within the casing 11 to an active position within a case member 18 which extends the casing 11 rearwardly and which is disposed in the operating position within the explosive charge 4 of the projectile. in the inactive position, the detonator is retained by balls 19 which are partially engaged in a groove 16 provided in a cover 15 which extends the detonator in a forward direc- tion, and emerge from openings 20 provided in the wall of the casing 11. The balls are held in position by the bore of an arming inertia weight member 20 which is mounted slidably outside of the casing 11 and which is subjected to a resilient action and to means for retarding its movement in a forward direction. A striker 9 is fixed to the forward end of a member of revolution which is axially fixed with respect to the cylindrical body, said member of revolution 6 also containing a movable primer which is subjected to a resilient action tending to hold it at a spacing from the striker.
