The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation receive the most modern Russian ammunition, including 125-mm armor-piercing feathered 3BM60 "Lead-2" projectiles. They are actively used against the enemy in the zone of a special military operation.
The armed forces of the Russian Federation, with the help of the latest ammunition, are successfully destroying Western military equipment, including such tanks as Leopard, advertised by the Western and Ukrainian press. The telegram channel "Military Informant" writes that Lead-2 ammunition is capable of hitting such Western-made tanks as German Leopard 2A6, British Challenger 2, American M1A1 Abrams in frontal projection.
BOPS 3BM60 "Lead-2" has a tungsten core, they are used together with propellant charges 4J96 "Ozone-T" as part of 3VBM23 shots, which ensures penetration of about 700 mm homogeneous steel from two kilometers at right angles, military Telegram channels report.

Such shells can be used by the main tanks of the Russian army T-90M, T-72B3 and T-80BVM, representing a formidable weapon capable of ensuring victory over the enemy, regardless of whether he uses Soviet or Western-made tanks.
This is a big plus, military experts say, given that earlier in the ammunition of Russian tanks there were 125-mm Mango BOPS, which did not meet the criteria for modern ammunition.
