Historical Significance:

The 40mm M81A1 Shot Armor-Piercing Tracer (APT) Round was a crucial component of the U.S. military's anti-armor capabilities during World War II and beyond. Designed to penetrate enemy armor and provide a visual trace of its trajectory the M81A1 APT round was used in various 40mm anti-aircraft and anti-tank guns, such as the M1 and M2 Bofors guns.

The M81A1 round played a significant role in both defensive and offensive operations. Its armor-piercing capabilities were vital for engaging enemy tanks, armored vehicles, and fortified positions, while the tracer element allowed gunners to visually track the round's path and adjust their aim accordingly. This combination of features made the M81A1 APT round an indispensable tool for ground and naval forces.
