Own a remarkable piece of military training history with this inert 105mm M737 Target Practice Discarding Sabot-Tracer (TPDS-T) Projectile. This artifact showcases the advanced engineering used in tank ammunition during the latter half of the 20th century. Designed as target practice ammunition, offering a cost-effective way to train tank crews, the M737 represents an essential component in modern armored warfare training.
The M737 TPDS-T projectile was developed to train tank crews in the use of kinetic energy (KE) armor-piercing ammunition without the cost associated with APDS-T rounds. It is designed to replicate the trajectory, velocity, and performance of M392 Armor Piercing Discarding Sabot-Tracer (APDS-T) ammunition, a primary round used in early M1 Abrams, M60 Patton, and other NATO tanks during the Cold War era.
The M737 was widely used during the 1980s and 1990s, playing a critical role in ensuring that tank crews could achieve high levels of accuracy and effectiveness. By simulating combat scenarios, the M737 enabled realistic gunnery exercises and improved readiness in NATO tank forces.
This inert M737 projectile is deactivated and safe for handling and display. It retains the distinctive sabot components, and the tracer housing is intact, making it a stunning addition to any military ordnance collection. Its sleek aerodynamic design and historical significance make it an eye-catching centerpiece for display.
