40mm Hi Vel and Low Vel Thermal Training Cartridge
Abstract
The Target Practice Day Night Thermal (TP-DNT) cartridges are 40mm grenade training cartridges. The Low Velocity (LV) variant is for training with the M203/M320 grenade launchers; the High Velocity (HV) variant is for training with the Mk19 grenade machine gun. Both cartridges will provide the Warfighter with a non-dud producing, environmentally friendly training cartridge that provides a visual impact signature seen day or night, by the naked eye, through night vision devices, and thermal weapon sights. These cartridges will replace the 40mm M781 LV Target Practice and the 40mm M918/M385A1 (Mixed Belt) HV Target Practice. It is expected that the unit price for high velocity cartridges will be lower than the Mixed Belt cartridges.
