YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Abrams can use the 120mm M1028 canister which round expels 1,100 tungsten spheres to provide a shotgun effect against light targets and personnel. The Joint Program Executive Office Armaments and Ammunition (JPEO A&A) is currently developing a new Advanced Multi-Purpose (AMP) cartridge that combines the capabilities of the current HE and canister cartridges into one round, and also adds new capabilities to breach double reinforced concrete walls and defeat Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) teams out to 2,000m.
AMP uses an HE warhead with tungsten spheres to provide blast, armor penetration and fragmentation effects. When fired from an Abrams tank equipped with the Ammunition Data Link, the AMP cartridge can be programmed for one of three modes; point-detonate, point-detonate-delay or airburst.
