This is a 3D printed replica of the 30mm round fired by the A10 Warthog! There are several different models which we will be listing individually. The 30x173 round the Warthog fires has multiple different projectiles to fit mission specific needs. This version reproduces the Armor Piercing Incendiary. They are designed to penetrate heavy armor.
A few details on the 30mm x 173 round for those interested:
"When the 30mmx173 was conceptualized the Cold War was in its height and the round was designed to be effective against Soviet Armor at that time. This included Soviet Tanks, Personnel carriers and support vehicles. The round has also proven effective as destroying all sorts of military hardware, including more fixed assets such as radar installation."
This is a 3D printed plastic replica. It is NOT real. It is not an inert, demilled or once fired rebuild. It cannot be made real and has no value beyond collectible display, conversation starter and educational aid.
Volume pricing is available. Buying more than one saves you money per item!!
