CTA International has also developed a dedicated 40mm ammunition suite for the 40CTAS. Thanks to its telescoped design, the 40CT ammunition offers compactness and lethality to the end-user and constitutes a true revolution on the modern battlefield.
APFSDS-T : Armour Piercing Fin Stabilised Discarding Sabot-Tracer
Greater penetration at increased range
The tungsten projectile of the APFSDS-T can penetrate more than 140 mm of RHA (Rolled Homogenous Armour) at 1,500 m, defeating both light to heavily protected vehicles with advanced add-on armour.
