Notes:
Title: M74 APAM Submunition
Special Instructions: Show inert M74 to students and allow the students to pass around the class.
Dialogue: The M74 grenade is the submunition for the ATACMS Block I and IA missiles. Upon impact and detonation, each grenade breaks up into a large number of high velocity steel fragments that are effective against light skinned vehicles. The target set includes ADA sites, POL sites (due to the fact that each APAM contains phosphoric pellets that cause materials to ignite on contact), C 2 facilities and missile rounds and launchers. The M74 is not effective against armored vehicles.
