100 photos & 50 drawings. Concise guide to modern ammunition. Detailed specifications and illustrations.International coverage A rifle without ammunition is an expensive club, an artillery piece without shells, a futuristic sculpture. To fully understand weapons, one must understand ammunition. Some types have remained basically unchanged for more than a century, while others change radically as new technology develops or new types of targets present themselves. This latest in the popular Military Manual series examines everything from simple rifle cartridges to highly complex "smart" projectiles, from grenades and mortar bombs to cannon and tank ammunition.
