General

The M735A1 APFSDS-T is an improvement of the M735 round, incorporating a core of depleted uranium rather than tungsten while retaining the same design. This round was never fielded by the U.S. military, instead being superseded by the M774 which had identical performance and a much simpler mono-block DU penetrator. As it was not actually fielded, this round was removed from Steel Beasts in revision 4.000.
