The 155mm IM HE-ER has a verified range of more than 40 km when fired from a modern L52 JBMoU gun system. Low round to round dispersion, combined with an enhanced blast and fragmentation effect, optimizes the impact on semi-hard targets at long firing ranges. The round is designed to defeat light armor and soft targets, and for increased flexibility incorporates an interchangeable base bleed and hollow base.
