A WAU-5001/B Armour Piercing Warhead for the CRV-7 70mm/2.75" rocket,showing a replica penetrator and the rubber retaining spacers.
The warhead body is made of plastic,the base just screws on, the penetrator merely being a 1"diameter tungsten rod.This one is just mild steel,but illustrates the very basic idea of how the penetrator works.
The hardest part to find is the rubber spacers!
