Described is a shaped charge warhead comprising an axially symmetric fragmentation casing designed to define a containment space and having in a base portion a casting hole for the explosive, a detonator housed in the casting hole and a conical liner of the shaped charge positioned inside the containment space.

The casing and the conical or hemispherical liner, with a variable thickness, if necessary, are made in a single piece.

The casing extends along a respective axis of extension in such a way as to also define a standoff of the charged warhead.

A dual-function penetrator liner for a multifunctional warhead. A dome-shaped outer portion is disposed in an inner front end of a warhead body to be concave in a direction opposite to a direction in which the warhead body is fired. A fastening portion is disposed in an outer circumferential direction of the outer to fasten the outer portion to the warhead body. A conical central portion is enclosed by the outer portion to protrude in a direction opposite to the direction in which the warhead body is fired. The outer portion and the central portion are concentric.

A liner includes a plurality of individual projectile cells and a web of joining material holding the plurality of projectile cells in a monolithic and continuous structure. The liner is cylindrical and formed of an additive manufacturing process.
