Another serious shortcoming was the tank's weak armament, the 2 pounder ( 40 mm ) gun, which was improved by the addition of a 3 inch howitzer in the hull ( the Mk IICS had the howitzer in the turret ) to deliver an HE shell albeit not on a howitzer's usual high trajectory.

Ammunition is selected for specific engagements and typically consists of a combination of HE ( high explosive ) and APTC ( armour piercing tungsten carbide ) rounds in sequence.

The combined weight of the shell and cartridge ( for an HE shell and for a propellant cartridge ) made the work of the loader arduous, especially if the gun was elevated to a high angle.

30 mm ammunition generally comes in three varieties: armor piercing ( AP ), high explosive ( HE ), and training rounds.

Conventional high explosives are still used in missiles and nuclear artillery shells where weight and volume is a factor ( IHE by weight contains only two-thirds the energy of HE, so more is needed to achieve the same effect ).

In addition to first and second-lien loans, other HE loans can consist of high loan to value ( LTV ) loans, re-performing loans, scratch and dent loans, or open-ended home equity lines of credit ( HELOC ), which homeowners use as a method to consolidate debt.
