MikeyD Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Has the vehicle in question and the title in question been mentioned? That would narrow down the inquiry considerably. Ah, I just found it in CMBS on the Ukrainian BM Oplot, 22 rounds of 125mm ABHE. It appears to be their standard HE round with the other 20 rounds going to HEAT and APFSDS, plus 4 ATGMs. T90AM also carries the round, half the ammo loadout. Oh, look what I found! Its a REAL round for T90AM, its a '*speculative* round for the*speculative* BM Oplot. Quote 3VOF128/3OF82 Entered service in 2014. Uses the 3VM-18 programmable detonator. The projectile contains 450 tungsten rods, each weighing 3 grams and creates 2,500 fragments in a cone formation ahead of the projectile[11] when air burst mode is set. Air burst mode for use against infantry, light vehicles and helicopters, delayed mode use against bunkers and other constructions. Is currently used on the 2A46M-5 gun, mounted on the T-90M.[11] Country of origin: Russia Round weight: 33.0 kg Projectile weight: 23.0 kg Muzzle velocity: 850 m/s Max dispersion: 0.23 mil (0.23 mrad) Charge weight: 3.0 kg Charge: A-IX-2 (73% RDX, 23% aluminium powder, phlegmatized with 4% wax) 3.0 kg Edited December 19, 2021 by MikeyD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
