Next-Generation Military Training Ammunition
Same Mission. Different Future.
A new material and manufacturing approach to training ammunition. Designed for today’s NATO standard weapon systems and engineered for tomorrow’s defence.
The sustainability shift
Same training purpose.
A radically lighter footprint.
GreenBlank is designed to improve the full lifecycle – from raw materials and production to transport, use and end of life.
| Lifecycle factor | Traditional brass | AMA Greenblank |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Higher material and processing cost | Lower material cost |
| Weight | Heavy brass casing | Lower weight |
| Production | Multi-step, energy-intensive forming | Easier, more efficient production |
| End of life | Persistent metal and collection burden | Biodegradable by design |
| Environmental impact | Mining, processing, transport weight and range recovery | Reduced resource use, transport emissions and persistent training waste |
