The MK281 MOD 3 40 mm High Velocity and the M1110 40 mm Low Velocity Day-Night Training Cartridges are produced at ARM’s state-of-the-art facility located in Camden, Arkansas.

In addition, ARM has established a 40 mm automated, air burst fuze production facility in Windham, ME that not only provides a precision counter-defilade capability to Soldiers and Marines, but also brings advanced manufacturing to the U.S. industrial base while creating additional quality U.S. manufacturing and engineering jobs.Rheinmetall’s Weapon and Ammunition division – Aim for the future
