Contains illustrations of the rounds, firing tables, penetration curves, aiming data charts, and pictures of actual penetration tests conducted on captured German Panther tanks at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland. This was the gun found on the Pershing tank and M36 Gun Motor Carriage. Pretty cool stuff for anyone who is interested in this kind of information.
