20MM Cartridges

PGU-28 Semi-Armor Piercing High Explosive Incendiary

(SAPHEI):

PGU-28 (A677) projectile is machined from 15B27 steel bar stock and then hardened to improve performance against lightly armored targets. The projectile consists of two incendiary compounds, High Explosive (HE), zirconium pellet, copper rotating band, aluminum nose, and a support disk. The nose ignites the more energetic body incendiary, which in turn, initiates the Composition A4 HE.

20MM Cartridges, cont.

M56 series (HEI):

M56 (A953, A919) projectile body is manufactured from bar stock steel by screw machine process. It has relatively thin-walled casing, base plate, and aluminized Comp A-4 HEI charge. The M56A3 is assembled with the M103 or M103A1 cartridge case and, the M505A3 Point Detonating (PD) fuze to initiate the explosive charge. The M56A3 cartridge is also assembled using an M56A4 projectile body manufactured by a blank, cup, and draw process. The M56A4 projectile body has no base plate and contains an aluminized Comp A-4 HEI charge. It uses the standard M505A3 fuze.

The M226 (H051) grenade launcher consists of a cylindrical plastic tube which houses one M225 cartridge, and a two-piece sabot assembly (cover and holder) which contains two AN-M8 HC-filled smoke grenades. The M226 grenade launcher provides a smoke screen for concealing tactical maneuvers of a vehicle. The safety pins are removed from both grenades during assembly, therefore, the munition is armed and ready to function when it is released from the launcher tube. The aluminum-alloy cap assembly is rolled in place over a rubber gasket on the open end of the tube to hold the sabot assembly in place. The carriage containing the percussion primer is positioned in the base of the tube. A threaded plastic retainer holds the M225 cartridge in place. Two synthetic-rubber or felt pads are placed between each grenade and the sabot assembly.

A plastic spacer separates the grenades inside the sabot assembly. A synthetic-rubber seal serves as an obturator ring between the sabot assembly and the cartridge.
