Here's What We Know

Tanker Andriy Nikonorov published photos from the test. The Russian T-62MV fighting vehicle was probably hit with a 120mm DM-53 kinetic projectile. It was developed by Rheinmetall.

The DM-53 has a core made of tungsten and WSM IV alloy. The projectile is designed to engage enemy armoured vehicles with dynamic protection.
