68.CARTRIDGE SA 9 mm TRACER .840 CAP WITH HOLDER -840

These cartgs. are of rimless type. They are generally fired from 9 mm sub calibre adapter 219 as a training device for 84 mm Carl Gustaf. Unlike Cartg. SA 9 mm ball, tracer bullet has a cavity in which tracer and igniter compositions are filled. Masses of these compositions are 0.150 and 0.08 g respectively. On firing, the igniter composition takes flash from propellant and transmits it to tracer composition. Ignition of tracer composition leaves a luminous trail throughout the trajectory of the bullet. Igniter composition gets ignited at a distance from the muzzle end of the weapon. Due to this muzzle of the weapon cannot be detected easily by enemy troops.

The striker of the rimfire rifle is placed eccentric to the axis of the barrel, so that when the rifle is fired, it pinches the rim and thus fires the cartridge. The bullet is made of lead antimony alloy and is unjacketed. The bullet is round nosed and formed with three circumferential grooves.

155 mm SHELL HEER

It is a high explosive extended range (HEER) Shell. The shell comprises of a forged and machined special steel body. The body possesses optimised geometry to improve the ballistic co-efficient (Reduced drag). The rear of the body is externally threaded to receive the Base Bleed unit (BBU). The BBU reduces the drag and gives additional thrust to carry the shell further. The nose of the shell body is provided with top screw which is threaded to receive the fuze or a plug with carrying ‘T’ handle while in storage. A plain copper Alloy driving band on the body of the shell is provided to give a gyratory force which ensures the stability of the shell in the trajectory. The driving band also acts as a gas check preventing movement of hot gases past the shell. The shell body is filled with high quality TNT. The top screw contains initiator.

130.155 mm SMOKE SHELL FFV 007 ER (24KM)

131.SHELL 155 mm HE

132.SHELL 155 ILLUMINATING (ERFB)

DESCRIPTION :
The payload is an illuminating candle attached to a parachute. Because this cannot be successfully ejected directly from the shell due to the high spin and velocity which still occur at the moment of deployment, this payload is contained within a steel canister with its own delayed ejection charge. When the canister is ejected, the delay ignites and simultaneously a drogue parachute deploys and anti-rotation fins open on the canister, drastically reducing velocity and rotation of the canister before the flare and parachute are ejected from it.

APPLICATION :
Since it has a low rate of descent, the candle continues to give good ground illumination over a wide area during its total burning time. This could facilitate redeployment of own forces but is more likely to be used for surveillance of enemy movement which might otherwise go undetected in darkness.

136.155-mm HE-ER (High-Explosive Extended-Range) base-bleed projectile

The 155-mm HE-ER (High-Explosive Extended-Range) base-bleed projectile is operated primarily for blast and fragmentation against infantry troops and soft materiel targets.

This projectile can be fired from 39, 45, 52 -calibre 155-mm artillery guns using all types of propelling charges. The increased range is achieved by using a low-drag aerodynamic shape coupled with base bleed technology.
The projectile contains 12 kilograms of TNT in a thin-walled, high-strength, high-fragmentation steel- alloy body.

It has a deep-cavity fuze design that accepts Point-Detonating (PD) or proximity (VT) fuzes.
