105mm artillery ammunition

The next generation of explosive fill combines world-leading Insensitive Munitions (IM) characteristics with optimised explosive effects on target. Our entire range of 105mm ammunition is supported by an extensive choice of fuzes and propelling charges.

The L31 High Explosive 105mm shell is designed for use with the BAE Systems 105mm Light Gun L118.

It comprises a high tensile steel body, filled with RDX/TNT and fitted with a user selected fuze. The shell achieves a higher consistency of range and accuracy compared to the US M1 shell and has a 25% greater lethal area. It is combat proven and in service with the British Army and many other armies worldwide.

Other variants include: Illuminating and smoke. An IM (Insensitive Munition) option is currently being trialled.
