A warhead (10) configuration for forming a large-diameter hole through a wall of a target includes a shaped charge of explosive material (12) presenting an annular front surface portion (16) circumscribing an axis of the charge. The annular front surface portion (16) exhibits a concave profile as viewed in cross-section through the axis, at least part of the concave profile being configured such that a vector projecting outward from the part normal to the annular front surface portion diverges from the axis. A liner (14) is provided adjacent to at least part of the annular front surface portion.

L'invention concerne une configuration de cône de charge (10) pour la formation d'un orifice de grand diamètre dans la paroi d'une cible, comporte une charge creuse de matière explosive (12) présentant une partie (16) superficielle frontale annulaire entourant un axe de la charge. La partie (16) superficielle frontale annulaire présente un profil concave, vu transversalement par rapport à l'axe, au moins une partie du profil concave étant configuré, de manière qu'un vecteur saillant vers l'extérieur de la partie orthogonale par rapport à la partie superficielle frontale annulaire, diverge de l'axe. Une assiette (14) est adjacente à au moins une partie de la partie superficielle frontale annulaire.
