Product Description
The 20 x 139mm DM1 round, manufactured by NWM De Kruithoorn in the Netherlands in 1997, was developed specifically for the Rheinmetall Mk 20 Rh-202, a versatile autocannon used by various NATO forces. The DM1 is an inert training round designed to simulate the live ammunition's weight and dimensions, allowing for safe handling and training exercises without the risk of live fire.
This 20mm round features a robust cartridge case and a dummy projectile, enabling military personnel to practice loading, unloading, and maintenance procedures. The Rheinmetall Mk 20 Rh-202, renowned for its high rate of fire and reliability, is used on a range of armored vehicles and aircraft, including the Marder infantry fighting vehicle and various naval mounts. The inert DM1 round is crucial for ensuring that troops can train effectively without expending costly live ammunition or risking safety.
The design of the DM1 inert round replicates the ballistics of its live counterparts, providing accurate simulation for targeting and tactical training. These rounds are identifiable by their distinct markings, typically indicating their inert status to prevent confusion with live ammunition. As a result, the DM1 round plays a vital role in the training and preparedness of armed forces utilizing the Mk 20 Rh-202 autocannon
