The new and improved Multipurpose (MP) F3 version gives better penetration, fragment pattern, accuracy and improved safety. It has enhanced penetration capability and fulfills STANAG AP requirements. The round has more fragments than the old version and, with a temperature stable propellant from extreme -54°C (-62°F) up to +71°C (161°F), it has excellent ballistic performance.
