<h2>Armament</h2><p>CN105F1 series tank guns; 105 mm 105 G2 gun; 105 mm 105 G1 gun; all 105 mm L7, Rh 105 and M68 series tank guns and South African GT7 tank gun.</p><h2>Development</h2><p>The 105 mm HE OE 105 F1 is a general purpose high-explosive shell. It is stated to have a similar on-target performance to the US 105 mm HE M1, scattering fragments over a lethal radius of 15 to 20 m. The OE 105 F1 has been referred to as the OC 105 or OE Mle 60, and is sometimes designated as a Fragmentation round. This round is no longer in production.</p><h2>Description</h2><p>The 105 mm HE OE 105 F1 is a fixed round, with the projectile rigidly secured to the brass or steel cartridge case by a single crimping ring. This engages in a pronounced cannelure on the projectile just to the rear of the copper or gilding metal drive band. The projectile, sometimes referred to as the OE Mle 60, is steel and is filled with 2 kg of Hexolite 50:50. A point detonating FUI 56 fuze is threaded into the nose fuze well; the PD M51 may also be used. The round uses an Mle F2 brass or steel cartridge case (of the M148 or M150 type - length 617 mm) with a TPA electrical primer in the base. The charge is a nominal 2.4 kg of multiperforated LB-7 T-70 single-base propellant. The propellant load produces a muzzle velocity of 700 m/s. The reduced power round uses a shorter (531 mm) brass or steel cartridge case with straight sides. It uses the same propellant charge so that the resultant muzzle velocity is also 700 m/s. The 105 mm HE OE 105 F1 produces a muzzle velocity of 700 m/s and has the following ballistic characteristics: Range Time of flight Remaining velocity 1,000 m 1.54 s 601 m/s 1,500 m 2.4 s 555 m/s 2,000 m 3.34 s 512 m/s 2,500 m 4.36 s 470 m/s A practice round known as the PLPN is produced as the training equivalent for the OE 105 F1.</p><h2>Authorised fuzes</h2><p>BD FUI 56 or M51 Equivalent rounds ARGENTINA</p><p>ARGENTINA</p><h2>Manufacturer</h2><p>Direccion General de Fabricaciones Militares</p><p>Type: 105 mm EF</p><p>Description: Standard specifications for reduced power round for 105 mm 105 G1 gun on AMX-13</p><p>FRANCE</p><h2>Manufacturer</h2><p>Giat Industries</p><p>Type: 105 mm OE</p><p>Description: See text</p><p>SPAIN</p><h2>Manufacturer</h2><p>SANTA BARBARA SA</p><p>Type: OE 105 F2</p><p>Description: Standard specifications for full power round.
