IDnumber | 115 | Caliber | 12,7x99 | Model | 12,7 mm m/45 Slprj | Projectile form | | Projectile weight | 41 gram | Projectile material | | Projectile type | Tracer | Colour markings | White tip | V0 mps | 875mps | V0 fps | - | Propellant | | Propellant weight Gram | | Propellant weight Grain | - | This tracer illuminates for up to 1500 meters. Is also used in peacetime training. One of the problems with the tracer in AG90 is that illuminates enough to reveal were the shooter is. I have heard rumors that there is a development of a less brightly burning projectile, but i don't know if that is true. | |

The projectile has a Tungsten core that gives it a good penetration on hard targets. The explosives will detonate at impact and fragments the fragmentation jacket to circa 20 pieces. The incendiary compound burns for about 1 sec, time enough for the burning particles to travel some 15 meters.
The cartridge is manufactured by the Raufoss factory in Norway.
