Duplicate Vehicles: Why We Add Them

Hmm, not a single inert M61 APCBC shot found here, only M61 APCBC/HE. By April 1944 the British were solely using APHE with their 75mm guns, because that’s what they got from the US.

The difference is the British didn’t make anymore APHE rounds after the 3-Pdr and 2-Pdr, they still happily used what was delivered.

It’s kinda funny that the later war British tanks with the QF 75 have a better claim to US APHE rounds than their earliest Shermans used in North Africa.
