Machine Guns, 7.62mm, M219 and M240.
The cartridge is designed for firing single shots
in the machine gun for gunnery practice.
Description:
FRANGIBLE Cartridge.
The cartridge is
identified by a green bullet tip with a white
ring to the rear of the green tip.
Function:
The frangible bullet, upon striking a target,
disintegrates, leaving a mark at the point of
impact. It is not to be fired on indoor ranges
unless they are well ventilated to prevent the
buildup of bullet “dust,” which is toxic.

TRAINER-SPOTTER Cartridge. The cartridge has a chemical-filled (smoke composition) projectile. It is identified by the markings
on the cartridge case and a yellow projectile tip.
The cartridge has no fuze and it uses a time
delay element to provide an air burst.
Function:
When the cartridge is fired, the heat of the
propellant gases ignites the delay element. The
delay element burns 3 seconds and, in turn,
ignites the smoke composition. The heat and
pressure produced by the burning filler rupture
the plastic closing disc at the projectile base
and a visible puff of smoke is emitted.

The cartridge is for use against ground targets,
including lightly armored vehicles, functioning
with both explosive and incendiary effect. The
projectile consists of a high explosive incendiary
(HEI) charge and is assembled with t.he
M505A3 fuze.
Description:
HIGH EXPLOSIVE
INCENDIARY Cartridge. The projectile is thin-walled steel. A
base plate is attached to the projectile to prevent ignition of the incendiary mixture by the
propellant gases. A point-detonating (PD) fuze
is screwed into the nose of the projectile.
Function:
P
The M505A3 fuze is a point-detonating,
single-action fuze intended to function upon
impact with the target.
Difference~- Ijetween Models:
The models differ in the method of loading
the projectiles. The M56A3 has the HE mh
and the incendiary mix combined in one pellet
The M56A4 has the incendiary pellet inserted
into the projectile, then the HE mix pellet is
added. This improves fire start capability.

Description:
HIGH EXPLOSIVE INCENDIARY-TRACER
Cartridge.
The cartridge has a pointdetonating (PD) self-destroying (SD) fuze
M594. The projectile is a hollow body filled
with 120 grams of high explosive incendiary
(HEI) mixture with a tracer tablet at the base
and the PD SD fuze screwed onto the nose.
Function:
When fired, the weapon firing pin initiates
the primer which ignites the propelling charge.
Gases produced by the burning propellant propel the projectile. The projectile shall function
with high order detonation upon impact or, if
the projectile does not impact on intended target within 4 to 7 seconds, a SD mechanism will
cause high order detonation of the projectile.

the 20mm M246 HEI-T-SD as the primary air
defense cartridge for the VADS and any of its
improved versions.
Function:
The existing Vulcan Air Defense System
WADS) and Product Improved Vulcan Air
Defense System (PIVADS) M246 ammunition is
incapable of providing defense against the modern enemy threat at combat ranges greater
than 1,600 meters because of inherent perfoimante limitations including poor flight characteristics, self-destroying ranges, and terminal
effectiveness. Therefore, the Army decided to
pursue acquiring a new round of ammunition
for VADS/PIVADS which would exhibit better
exterior ballistics and greater lethality than the
M24G High Explosive Incendiaryexisitin
Tracer s elf-Destroying (HEI-T-SD) ammunition.
Description:
SELFTRACE
MULTIPURPOSE
DESTROYING Cartridge. The cartridge is an
mlproved fuzeless pyrotechnic initiated 20mm
HE cartridge. The projectile consists of a heavywalled ste&l body charged with explosive mix
and an incendiary mix, and an aluminum nose
charged with another incendiary mix. The projectile also has safe and arming (S&A), tracer,
and self-destroying which is initiated by heat
from combustion of the tracer composition.
The lack of fuze permits an enhanced aerodynamic ogive shape which results in a reduction in drag factor and reduced time of flight,
thereby extending the effectiveness of the
VADS from 1,200 meters to 2,000 meters
against aircraft targets. The M940 will replace
The projectile consists of a steel body
charged with a HE mix, Composition A-4 (MILC-4401, and an incendiary mix, Type I (equivalent I-68). The projectile has an aluminum
nose charged with Type II incendiary (equivalent I-136). The hardened forebody of the projecti!e provides for defeat of !ightweight armor
(3/8 RI-IA at well over 500 ml. The incendiaries
provide a built-in delay when initiated on the
thin skin of an aircraft, and the projectile
explodes approximately 1 foot behind the skin.
The M940 cartridge, therefore, is primarily
intended for air defense but has a secondary
roll against light armored vehicles. The M940
contarns a chemical S&A intended to reduce
the probability of functioning on a 0.04 aluminum plate at 1 meter from the muzzle. When
initiated, all projectile fragnlents go forward.

Description:
ARMOR PIERCING DISCARDING SABOTTRXJE’R Cartridge. The cartridge is a fixed
type, percussion primed 25mm ammunition,
intended as the armor piercing service round to
successfully engage lightly armored vehicles.
The cartridge consists of a sabot encapsulated
projectile body, crimped to a steel cartridge case
containing 98 grams of extruded propellant,
Ml15 percussion primer and booster pellet.
The projectile body consists of a solid tungsten
alloy penetrator, pressed on aluminum windshield, pressed-m tracer pellets, molded discarding-type nylon sabot, staked aluminum
base and pressed-on polythylene nose cap.
Function:
Gases produced by the burning propellant propel the projectile from the cannon and ignite
the tracer. Setback, centrifugal and air pressure forces cause the sabot to discard upon leaving the gun tube. The penetrator (core) is spinstabilized and penetrates the target solely by
kinetic energy.

Description:
TARGET PRACTICE DISCARDING SABOTTR.X!ER Cartridge.
The cartridge is a fixed
type, percussion
primed 25mm ammunition,
intended as a training substitute for armor piercing service ammunition.
The cartridge consists
of a sabot encapsulated
projectile body, crimped
to a steel cartridge case containing 97 e-rams of
extruded
propellant,
Ml15 percussioc-primer
and booster pellet. The projectile body consists
of a solid steel core, pressed-on aluminum windshield, pressed-in
tracer pellets, molded discarding-type
nylon sabot, staked
aluminum
base and pressed-on polyethylene nose cap.
Function:
allowing the spin-stabilized
core to match the
armor piercing round trajectory
to a range of
2000 meters.
Upon tracer burnout, the lightweight core loses velocity rapidly and eventually tumbles when its velocity goes below the
speed of sound.

Cartridge.
The cartridge is a fixed type, percussion primed
25mm ammunition,
intended to supersede the
M791 for use in combat. The cartridge consists
of a subcaliber projectile inside an aluminum
sabot, crimped to a steel cartridge case containing 97 grams of extruded propellant,
modified
Ml15 percussion primer and flash tube.
The
subprojectile consists of a depleted uranium penetrator
with a pressed-on
aluminum
wind-
Gases produced by the burning propellant propel the projectile through the barrel and ignite
the tracer.
Centrifugal,
air, and gas pressure
forces cause the obturator, sabot, and nose cap
to discard upon leaving the barrel.
The low
drag subcaliber projectile travels along its trajectory stabilized by the fin and a small amount of
spin. The tracer allows visual contact with the
fired round as it travels downrange.
Upon
impact, kinetic energy stored in the subprojectile causes it to punch through
an armored
target and inflict considerable
damage inside,
prohibiting any further use of the target.

The fuze is designed for use with the 25mm,
high explosive incendiary with tracer, M792 cartridge, fired from the M242 cannon.
Description:
The point-detonating
(PD), seWdestroying
(SD) M758 fuze is a delayed arming, PD SD
type which also features graze impact sensitivity against hard and soft ground media as well
as super-quick functioning
upon target impact.
The fuze consists of an ogive assembly crimped
to a base assembly which houses a piston assembly, a piston spring, a body assembly, and a setback spring.
The ogive assembly consists of n
nylon probe within a steel ogive crimped to il
steel probe cap while the base assembly consists of a lead charge within a steel base. The
piston spring separates the piston assembly, consisting of an aluminum
piston base, a piston
seal. a seal ring, a steel restrictor, and a steel firing pin from the body assembly consisting of a
nylon upper body, an alumimml lower body, a
steel roller weight, a body, a zinc rotor, a detonatos, two steel lockwelghts
and lockweight
springs which, in turn, separate
assembly by the setback spring.
from the base
fhnct ion:
--Starting from the safe condition, acceleration forces. associated with projectile launch,
cause the body assembly and piston assembly
located within the fuze ogive to he simultaneously set hack to the rear of the fuze against
the setback spring. Air originally in the bottom
of the fuze is forced through ports into the chamher ahnve the piston.
The high spin fijrces,
which occur ahnost simultaneously
with the sethack forces, serve three purposes.
The spin
effect causes two lockweights to move against
their firing pin which keeps the motor in a snf‘e
position. Spin also causes two balls to move outward into groove located around the inner part
of the o.gice, locking the body assemhly rearward against
the compressed
force of the
setback spring.
Spin also causes a rubher piston seal to flare out against the bore of the
ogive, resulting
in necessury
piston SCillillg
action. As the projectile leaves the muzzle, the
acceleration
force dissipates
and t,he piston
becomes free to move forward under forces
exerted by the piston spring. The rate of piston
movement
forward is controlled
by air being
forced through a porous metal restrictoc
This
action provides the required alming delay time
to meet the fuze no-arm and all-arm requirements.
As the piston approaches the forward
position, the firing pin is withdrawn
from the
17-5
TM 43-0001-27
rotor, allowing it to rotate to the armed position.
Centrifugal force akting on the roller
weight causes it to move into a groove and lock
the rotor in the armed position. The fuze is
fully anned when the detonator is in line with
the firing pin and lead assembly. The fuze funcc:

impact or self destruct (non-impact).
Direct
impact with the target causes a super-quick
function of the fuze due to the crushing action
of the nose probe. The nose prohe is driven
into the piston assembly, moving it rapidly rearward. The firing pin, as part of the piston
assembly, is thereb.y driven into the detonator

low graze angles can occur in two ways. On
soft targets where the projectile tends to enter
the target, the nose probe is crushed driving
the piston firing pin into the detonator. On low
angle or graze impacts on hard targets, deceleration of the projectile and spin decay occurs.
Spin decay reduces the centriftlgal forces acting

The fuze is designed for use with the 30mm
high explosive dual purpose (HEDP) cartridges
fired from the M230 automatic cannon.
Description:
Fuze M759 (formally
designated
as the
XM714E6) is a point-detonating
type with detoIt is used with
nator and spitback charge.
HEDP cartridge M789.
Function:
Prior to launch, the fuze detonator is housed
in the rotor with the rotor locked in the safe
position by the firing pin tip and two lockweights. On setback, the piston assembly (with
f;.ring pin) and body assembly (with detonate!
and rotor) are moved to the most rearward posi-
t,‘ln,,vy !E_$ring
pin tip and two lockweights.
~3s Lne Iiizeu proiectiie exits the pun muzzie.
spin envirom~ien~ causes the locukweights to
retract from the rotor and the two steel balls to
engage the ogive groove, locking the body assembly in the position it had achieved at setback.
In addition, spin causes the piston seal to flare
and engage the ogive sidewalls which eliminates the air flow path between the ogive and
piston. Movement of the piston assembly (firing pin) to the forward or anned position is
delayed due to the regulated flow of trapped nil
through the restrictor
until the projectile has
traveled a minimum of 15 meters from the muzAZ.

rotor (last safety lock), the spin causes the
rotor (with detonator)
to rotate to the elmed
state, i.e.. stab detonator aligned with firing pin
and lead cup assembly.
As the rotor achieves
the armed position (150 ml, the roller weight
moves out-board from the rotor and engages
the detent from the lower and upper bodies
thus locking the rotor in armed state. Upon target impilct, the probe nose piece is driven into
the ogivr forcil?g the piston assembly (firing
pin) aft. The firmg pin stabs the detonator, and
its esplosive initiates the lead cup assembly

Link MlO:
The Ml0 link (fig. 18-9) is utilized in the M3
and M24 belt-fed automatic guns. The link is
of steel and the belt is formed by the placement
of cartridges within the links. The link is selfseparating when the cartridges are removed during the gun feeding cycle. The metallic link can
20MM
be used to make up belts for either right-hand
or left-hand feeding of the gun.
A cartridge
metallic-link filler is used at the end of the belt
when it is desired to load belts fnr either doublelnop left-hand feed or double-loop right-hand
feed. The purpose of the link-filler is tn close
the single loop when it is at the end of the belt
to prevent snagging in the feed chute (NSN
1305-00-028-4869).
