Abstract: A cannon projectile having an elongated body with a plurality of elongated and circumferentially spaced segments. At least one tether is attached to at least one end of the segments to hold the segments together. A deployment device, when activated, enables the segments to deploy radially outwardly into a pattern controlled at least in part by the at least one tether using aerodynamic and inertial forces only.
