Case 3129b A B S T R A C T The invention relates to a subwarhead which is arranged to be separated from a missile, for example a carrier shell or the like, over a target area. The subwarhead comprises an active part, a target detector and an arrangement which imparts a rotation to the subwarhead for scanning of the target area in a helical pattern during the descent of the subwarhead towards the target area, the target detector being arranged displaceably in order to allow a free view at the side of the active part. Two diametrically situated aerofoils (1, 2) are arranged to be pivotable, each on its own shaft (4, 5), which shafts are situated in a plane which is at right angles to the axis of symmetry of the active part, from a folded-in position, in which the aerofoils connect with the outer surface of the subwarhead, to a position folded out by 90°, in which the two aerofoils form a braking area for the rate of descent of the subwarhead.
