Description

Description Cartridges, Tank, 105MM And 120MM, All Types

This budget line includes CARTRIDGE, TANK, 105MM and 120MM ALL TYPES: (E22125) M724A2 Cartridge replaces the (E22100) M724A1 Cartridge and provides the Army with a range limited (7,000 meters, maximum) round which can be safely fired at all training sites. The Cartridge, M724A2, 105mm Target Practice Discarding Sabot with Tracer (TPDS-T) will be used for gunnery training in the Army's 105mm M10 Booker platform. This discarding sabot round is similar in external appearance and is ballistically similar out to 2,000 meters with the M900, Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot w/Tracer Cartridge. It is used as a training surrogate for the M900 Cartridge. The M724A2 Cartridge consists of a deep drawn steel cartridge case, electric primer, propellant and a projectile consisting of a sub-projectile (steel core, windshield, fin and tracer) and aluminum sabot. This item is Code A, approved for service use. (E24300) The 105mm M393A3 (CA32) High Explosive Plastic with Tracer (HEP-T) Cartridge is fired from the 105mm M68 / M35 series cannon for the M10 Booker and utilizes a dual-safe fuze. The M393A3 Cartridge is capable of defeating standard earth and timber bunkers, field fortifications, light armor vehicles, and breaching double reinforced concrete walls so that infantry can pass through. The M393A3 HEP-T cartridge consists of a projectile steel body equipped with a metal rotating band, a dual-safe M578A1 fuze, Composition-A3 explosive, standard M1 propellant charge loaded in a three-section charge bag inside the M150B1 steel cartridge case , and packaged on a PA-117 Metal Canister. This item is Code A , approved for service use. (E73201) Cartridge, 120mm, Target Practice Multi-Purpose-Tracer (TPMP-T) M1002 is a target practice cartridge that simulates the size, weight, ballistics and the loader's function of setting the nose switch of the High Explosive Multi-Purpose cartridge M830A1. This round is fired from the M256 120mm smoothbore cannon on the M1A1/M1A2 Abrams Tank. The projectile is inert and composed of an aluminum body, steel nose with dummy plastic switch, aluminum tail cone, aluminum sabot, nylon obturators and tracer. The tail cone imparts spin to the projectile in flight for stabilization and provides the mechanism to limit the projectile's maximum range. The M1002 replaces the M831A1 cartridge. Tank crews will conduct live fire training with the cartridge to achieve and maintain gunnery proficiency. This item is Code A, approved for service use. (E73400) 120mm M865A1 (Longer Length) Target Practice Cone-Stabilized Discarding Sabot with Tracer (TPCSDS-T) is the follow on to the M865 TPCSDS-T. The M865A1 is a target practice round that simulates the ballistics of the 120mm M829 Series Armor Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot with Tracer (APFSDS-T) round and is a more accurate representation of the M829A4, in terms of size and handling, than its predecessor. This round is fired from the M256 120mm smoothbore cannon on the M1A1/M1A2 Abrams Tank. The projectile is inert and is composed of a steel core, aluminum fin, aluminum sabots, nylon obturator and tracer. The fin imparts spin to the projectile in flight for stabilization and provides the mechanism to limit the projectile's maximum range. Tank crews will conduct live fire training with the cartridge to achieve and maintain gunnery proficiency. This item is Code A, approved for service use. (E88105) 120mm HEMP-T, M1147 The Advanced Multi-Purpose (AMP) program is a direct fire line of sight 120mm large caliber munition in Full Rate Production for the Abrams Main Battle Tank. It has three modes of operation including point detonate, point detonate delay and airburst. AMP is the material solution for breaching double reinforced concrete walls and defeating Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) teams from 50m to 2000m (T) and 50m to 4500m (O), a validated gap that cannot be met with legacy stockpiled ammunition. In addition to added capability, AMP also successfully consolidates the capabilities of four legacy stockpiled 120mm high explosive and anti-personnel munitions, thereby addressing the users' battle carry dilemma by allowing them to load a single munition that is capable of defeating multiple targets including ATGM teams, reinforced walls, personnel, light armor, bunkers, and obstacles. This item is Code A, approved for service use. (E88106) 120mm M829A4 Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized, Discarding Sabot with Tracer (APFSDS-T) cartridge is the follow on to the M829A3 APFSDS-T cartridge. The M829A4 is the most effective anti-armor kinetic energy cartridge fired from the M256 120mm smoothbore cannon on the M1A1/M1A2 Abrams Tank. This cartridge has been designed to defeat advances in armor protection, specifically advancement in explosive reactive armor (ERA). The cartridge incorporates advancements in propulsion, using a temperature insensitive propellant, novel penetrator design, and an advanced composite sabot. The projectile system consists of a depleted uranium penetrator mated to a drag reducing windshield and flight stabilizing multi-bladed fin, all secured for launch with a composite sabot. The M829A4 captures several new technologies along with components previously used on previous APFSDS-T cartridges but incorporates technology advancements to yield significant improvement in performance over previous fielded cartridges. This item is Code A, approved for service use.
