Note that the jet’s effect is purely kinetic in nature and the round has no explosive or incendiary effect on the target.
The warhead functions by detonating an explosive charge that collapses a metal liner inside the warhead into a high-velocity superplastic jet which capable of penetrating armour steel to a depth of up to seven times the diameter of the charge. These use the Munroe effect (The Munroe or Neumann effect is the focusing of blast energy by a hollow or void cut on a surface of an explosive) to penetrate heavy and thick armour. High-explosive anti-tank ( HEAT) is a type of tank ammunition that uses shaped charge explosives. Thus modern tanks are equipped with a wide variety of rounds that can be fired from their main guns. So dealing with such a wide variety of treats and targets with a single type of ammunition is just not possible. These include other enemy tanks, man-portable anti-tank missiles, armoured personnel carriers capable of firing anti-tank missiles, airborne threats and much more.
In modern warfare, the tanks have to deal with a wide variety of threats and targets.
Hello defence lovers! In this article we are going to discuss the different types of Tank ammunition and where and how these are used.
