105 mm gessener

I leave some images of a projectile very rarely seen, with a touch of French originality

That's a French shaped charge shell where only the outside of the shell rotates and the shaped chage does not rotate to avoid spalling. It was used for the 105mm main gun of the AMX-13 tank.

Yes, I know. the exact denomination is: OCC (obus carge creuse) (hollow charge) 105- F1 (Or GESSENER projectile)
They not if they were used in AMX 13 were designed to AMX30, with the possibility of also being used in howitzers.


In Spain they lse used in the gun of AMX30 Tanks, and study the opportunities of using howitzers 105/14 and 105/26.
