A high explosive assembly and a method are disclosed for projecting a long rod at high velocity with enhanced penetrating energy. The high explosive assembly has an elongated core of a first high explosive having a first Chapman-Jouguet detonation velocity. The liner is positioned substantially along the longitudinal axis of the core. A jacket high explosive encasing the core has a second detonating velocity greater than the core detonations velocity
