A connection is described for connecting two tubular fuselage portions of a missile. The inner diameter of the rim of a first tubular fuselage portion to be connected with a second tubular fuselage portion corresponds to the outer diameter of the rim of the second tubular fuselage portion to be connected to the first tubular fuselage portion, deducting a jointing tolerance, The rims of the tubular fuselage portion to be connected are provided with radial bores to accommodate connection screws, Clamp segments are mounted in the second tubular fuselage portion along the inner circumference thereof. The clamp segments define threaded bores, connection screws being screwed into these threaded bores.
