30x173mm APFSDS
The 30x173mm APFSDS is a high-performance, armor-piercing kinetic energy round designed for use in 30mm autocannons. The projectile uses a fin-stabilized penetrator, made from high-density materials, to deliver concentrated kinetic energy on target, ensuring maximum penetration.
30x173 APFSDS has the best penetration effect for defeating modern armored threats, including light and medium armored vehicles.
- The APFSDS round uses a tungsten alloy penetrator that can pierce advanced armor up to 50mm RHA at long ranges
- Fin-stabilization ensures that the projectile procure the best external ballistic stability and precision.
- The discarding sabot design reduces drag once the projectile is free, ensuring minimal loss of velocity.
- Thanks to its high-power of penetration, the 30x173mm APFSDS-T ammunition allows you to carry out anti-tank or anti armored-vehicle missions.
