#1: Canadian 25 mm ammo / NL YPR-765 Author: L.Delsing, Posted: Sun Nov 19, 2006 10:04 am ---- Normally the NL YPRs used APDS/APFSDS ammo but for the operation in Afghanistan they got 25mm ammunition from the Canadians.
What type of ammunition is this (HEI)?
For what I've heard from people this is a very accurate and effective ammo. They took out several opposing forces spotters at distances up to 2000 meters. Also a bad guy on a motorcycle was taken out at long distance with a single shot. Rumours are that the bad guys already have given the YPR the nickname ''the green dragon''

Green Dragon...sounds like the Taliban are chasing the dragon a bit too much with their opium supply.
