BULLET 12.7 X 108 MM ARMOR PIERCING
The Armor Piercing (AP) cartridge is engineered to penetrate light armor at considerable distances. With its hardened steel core, this round is highly effective against vehicles, lightly armored targets, and fortified positions. It is commonly used in machine guns and sniper rifles like the NSV, KORD, and DShK, making it a reliable choice for disabling enemy equipment. Its high velocity and penetration capabilities allow it to defeat armor plating, typically penetrating around 20 mm at 100 meters.
