Additional Information for Practice 120 Millimeter Projectile And Propelling Charge
The Practice 120 Millimeter Projectile and Propelling Charge are components of the supply class Ammunition, specifically designed for use with artillery systems that have a caliber ranging from 75mm to 125mm.
The Practice 120 Millimeter Projectile is a non-explosive round that is used for training purposes. It is typically made of inert materials and does not contain any explosive components. This allows military personnel to practice firing and targeting exercises without the risk of causing damage or injury.
The Propelling Charge, on the other hand, is the component of the ammunition that provides the necessary propulsion for the projectile. It is responsible for generating the force needed to propel the projectile out of the artillery system and towards its target. The propelling charge is usually made up of a combination of propellant materials, which are ignited upon firing to create the necessary pressure and force.
Both the Practice 120 Millimeter Projectile and Propelling Charge are essential components of the ammunition supply group, which falls under the broader category of Ammunition and Explosives. These supplies are crucial for military operations involving artillery systems within the specified caliber range.
