Abstract
A comparison was made of the ammo cost on the basis of A Division Force Equivalent (DFE) per combat day in Europe and Korea using the retubed M114 and using the XM198. Results were determined for three conditions, i.e., (1) using the most cost-effective projectiles (all calibers), (2) using 8-inch projectiles only for targets beyond the range of 155mm, and (3) when the 8-inch ICM projectile was unavailable.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
