The 125 mm HCv is a training ammunition / shot imitator designed for D-81 tank cannons, perfectly reproducing the procedure for loading and firing combat ammunition. The energy generated during the shot is enough to operate the cannon's automatical mechanisms even in extreme temperatures. From the minimum danger zone (100m), the training costs are only a fraction of the costs required for firing combat ammunition.
