The 100 mm FRAG-HE 3UOF-10 and 3UOF-11 rounds are fixed. The projectiles rigidly secured to the cartridge cases by a shallow crimping ring. The two rounds differ only in propellant load; both carry the 100 mm FRAG-HE 3OF32 projectile. The 100 mm FRAG-HE 3OF-32 projectile weighs 15.7 kg and contains 1.7 kg of Hexagen (A-IX-2, desensitised RDX/Aluminium) initiated by a PD V-429 fuze or a close derivative. TNT is an alternative filling. The cartridge cases (lacquered steel or brass may be used) can contain one of two
possible propellant loads. From the limited information available to date it would appear that the 3UOF-10 round contains sufficient propellant to produce a muzzle velocity of 900 m/s and a maximum range of 16,800 m. The 3UOF-11 round has a maximum range of 20,600 m. Although these two 100 mm FRAG-HE rounds could theoretically be fired from almost any 100 mm rifled gun, they are intended primarily to be fired from 100 mm D-10 series tank guns and the 100 mm BS-3 field gun. This replaces the large array of HE and FRAG-HE rounds previously available (see previous entry). Both rounds employ the 100 mm FRAG-HE 3OF-32 projectile, the same as that used on the FRAG-HE 3UOF-17 round, employed with the 100 mm 2A70 gun/launcher carried by the BMP-3 MIFV (qv). As far as can be determined only the 3UOF-10 round is in current production. Production is by the Engineering Research Institute (NIMI) based in Moscow. Applications include 100 mm D-10 series tank guns (including NORINCO Type 59 ); 100 mm field gun BS-3; 100 mm KS-19 anti-aircraft gun; NORINCO 100 mm field gun and 100 mm anti-tank gun Type 73; 100 mm Field Gun M53 ; 100 mm towed anti-tank gun M1977 ; 100 mm towed anti-tank gun M1977 ( Romania ); 100 mm Coast Gun ( Yugoslavia ).
