Name M56A1 High Explosive Incendiary
Wt. .254 kg
Min. Range 11m
Eff. Range 2000m
Max. Range 7000m
Burst Radius 1m
E-Factor 57
Packaging 100 round belt per case

Additional Comments: This cartridge is used where a high explosive effect combined with an incendiary effect is most useful. This would be against vehicles, personnel, buildings, and aircraft. If the round impacts on a fuel container it will ignite the contents. In a combat loaded belt there are two HE-I rounds for every three AP-I rounds.
