Tungsten Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot-Trace(APFSDS-T) provides superior defeat capability over the M791 APFSDS-T round for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle. The long rod tungsten penetrator, of this highly effective anti-armor round, has excellent penetration characteristics with minimal dispersion. It is capable of defeating a wide array of target sets, including most modern armored infantry vehicles and armored personnel carriers
Tungsten armor-piercing discarding sabot (APDS) was initially the main design of the kinetic energy (KE) penetrator. The logical progression was to make the shot longer and thinner to concentrate the kinetic energy in a smaller area.To maximize the amount of kinetic energy released on the target, the penetrator must be made of a dense material, such as tungsten alloy . The hardness of the penetrator is of less importance, but is still a factor as abrasion is a major component of the penetrator defeat mechanism.
Tungsten armor piercing fin stabilized discarding sabot is significant standoff armor defeat capability, high reliability and high first round hit probability.
