Armored vehicle munition
A tank round is a single piece of ammunition fired from a tank's main gun.
Tank rounds come in various types designed for different targets—armor-piercing rounds for enemy vehicles, high-explosive rounds for infantry and structures.
The tank round punched through the concrete wall.
The term emphasizes the projectile as a unit of firepower rather than a generic shell.
