Raufoss MK211 .50 BMG Mod 0 HEIAP 665 GR (1-Round)

The Raufoss MK211, also known as the Multipurpose (MP) round, is a .50 caliber BMG (Browning Machine Gun) cartridge manufactured by LCAAP. This round has a unique design, which combines multiple effects into a single projectile. It has the ability to pierce thick armor due to the tungsten carbide penetrator found inside the cartridge. Raufoss rounds also have a small amount of explosive compound, which enhances damage potential. As if that wasn’t enough, this .50 BMG round also contains incendiary components which ignite upon impact. This can cause fires and additional damage to targets, as well as look really cool upon impact! All of those features contribute to the acronym HEIAP often found in the description of this round (high-explosive incendiary armor-piercing).

Upon impact, the incendiary compound ignites which creates the initial explosion. This coupled with the tungsten penetrator lurching forward out of the mild steel cup helps ignite the explosive RDX compound (1.5 - 2x more powerful that TNT) which is the devastating secondary explosion. During the secondary explosion, the zirconium powder that surrounds the 215-grain tungsten carbide penetrator ignites and shoots white hot spall that has similar properties to burning magnesium or white phosphorous. The tungsten penetrator then continues on through the target until it loses all its energy. This round can easily punch through a 3" thick Humvee ballistic windshield and the secondary explosion will occur once inside the cabin.

This deadly combination makes the Raufoss MK211 highly effective against a variety of targets, including armored vehicles, aircraft, and fortified structures. I certainly wouldn’t want to get hit by one of these, nor be anywhere near the target when it hits!
