Insensitive Munition High Explosive-Tracer
New Tactical Capability
The 120mm IM HE-T™ High Explosive Cartridge provides the armor forces with a devastatingly powerful HE warhead that greatly improves infantry support capability.
The IM HE-T™ will complement the tank’s current main gun ammunition with an Insensitive full-bore HE warhead capable of defeating a target set that includes bunkers, fortifications, light armor and personnel.
The two-mode hand-settable fuze allows the tank commander to select a point detonating (PD) function for maximum fragmentation/blast, or a delay function for detonation after target penetration.
Advantages:
- Insensitive warhead and propellant
- Excellent accuracy and increased lethality out to extended line of sight
- Over twice the HE compared to current in-service HEAT
