LARGE-CALIBER AMMUNITION

AP: Armor Piercing, essentially a large bullet with a hardened shell for armor penetration.

APC: Armor Piercing Capped, an AP round with a ballistic cap to cut through the air better and produce more speed. Also known as APCBC (Armor Piercing Capped, Ballistic Cap) and APCNR (Armor Piercing Capped Non-Rigid), which uses a composite penetrator.

APDS: Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot, a round that uses a large explosive charge to propel a smaller penetrator at high speed. Subcaliber penetrators may not necessarily be fired from a given gun; the muzzle brake, if present, must be designed to allow a discarding sabot’s shoes to not separate inside the muzzle brake.

APERS: AntiPERSonnel: A large shotgun-like round to defeat large numbers of enemy infantry. Also known as Canister.

APFSDS: Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot, an APDS round that is stabilized with fins, to produce more speed and a flatter trajectory. Subcaliber penetrators may not necessarily be fired from a given gun; the muzzle brake, if present, must be designed to allow a discarding sabot’s shoes to not separate inside the muzzle brake.

APFSDSDU: Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot Depleted Uranium, an APFSDS round made of heavy metal. Note that after 1997, most of these rounds are actually made of tungsten, a metal that gives penetration comparable to depleted Uranium and is much safer and less expensive to produce. Subcaliber penetrators may not necessarily be fired from a given gun; the muzzle brake, if present, must be designed to allow a discarding sabot’s shoes to not separate inside the muzzle brake.

APHE: Armor Piercing High Explosive, a round that attempts to penetrate the target with an explosion.

APHV: Armor Piercing High-explosive high-Velocity, a round which uses a combination of a hard penetrator and an explosion to penetrate armor.

CHEM: CHEMical, a round filled with either a smoke-producing compound or poison gas.

Flechette: Also known as beehive, this round is similar in concept to APERS, but uses small metal darts instead of steel balls.

FRAG-HE: FRAGmentation-High Explosive, a normal HE round with a jacket of steel balls to produce more casualties among ground personnel.

HE: High Explosive, a hollow round filled with explosive to produce a large explosion

HEAT: High Explosive Anti Tank, a round with an explosive charge specially shaped to produce a plasma jet to burn through armor.

HESH: High Explosive Squash Head, a round filled with plastic explosive. The charge flattens out against the target, breaking off a "scab" inside the target and transferring kinetic energy. Also known, especially in the Cold War US, as HEP (High Explosive Plastic).

HVAP: High Velocity Armor Piercing, a faster version of the AP round.

HVAPDS: High Velocity Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot, an APDS round propelled by a larger charge than normal, for more speed. Subcaliber penetrators may not necessarily be fired from a given gun; the muzzle brake, if present, must be designed to allow a discarding sabot’s shoes to not separate inside the muzzle brake.

LAHAT: Laser Homing Anti Tank, a guided round that is more accurate at very long ranges than a normal tank round. Use of this round requires a laser rangefinder or designator. The target must be lased until the round strikes it. (Speed: 1500m per phase.) This weapon is fired using Tac Missile skill.

MPAT: Multi Purpose Anti Tank. This weapon may be used against ground targets and helicopters. Ground/air mode is selected by the loader by turning the nose fuze and requires one phase. Ground mode acts like a normal HEAT round. Air mode activates a small radar in the nose of the round.

STAFF: Smart Top-Attack Fire and Forget. This round is treated like a fire-and-forget top attack missile (like Tank Breaker). The firing vehicle must use the laser rangefinder during the phase the STAFF round is fired. This weapon is fired using Tac Missile skill.

TERM-CE: Tank Extended Range Munition-Chemical Energy, a guided HEAT round for long-range shots. Use of this round requires a laser rangefinder or designator. The target must be lased until the round strikes it. (Speed: 1200m per phase.) This is a top-attack weapon. This weapon is fired using Tac Missile skill.

TERM-KE: Tank Extended Range Munition-Kinetic Energy, a guided sabot round for long-range shots. Use of this round requires a laser rangefinder or designator. This round is treated like a fire-and-forget top attack missile (like Tank Breaker). The rangefinder or designator must be used during the phase the round is fired. The TERM-KEs speed is 1500m per phase. This weapon is fired using Tac Missile skill.

TERM-TA: Tank Extended Range Munition-Top Attack. This is a STAFF round with a rocket motor. Use of this round requires a laser rangefinder or designator. This round is treated like a fire-and-forget top attack missile (like Tank Breaker). The rangefinder or designator must be used during the phase the round is fired. The TERM-TAs speed is 1500m per phase. This weapon is fired using Tac Missile skill.

Thermobaric: This is an explosive round based on Fuel-Air Explosive, which saturates the air with gasoline or jet fuel and then ignites it.

WP: White Phosphorus, an explosive round filled with incendiary particles. This round also produces smoke as a side effect.
