===Anti-tank=== Most anti-armor munitions contain shaped charge [[warhead]]s to pierce the armor of [[tank]]s and [[armored fighting vehicle]]s. In some cases, guidance is used to increase the likelihood of successfully hitting a vehicle. Modern guided submunitions, such as those found in the US CBU-97, can use either a shaped charge or an [[explosively formed penetrator]]. Unguided shaped-charge submunitions are designed to be effective against entrenchments that incorporate overhead cover. To simplify supply and increase battlefield effectiveness by allowing a single type of round to be used against nearly any target, submunitions that incorporate both fragmentation and shaped-charge effects are produced.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Anti Tank submunitions shaped-charge effects are produced - Cluster Bomb {{!}} Development History {{!}} - YTread |url=https://youtuberead.com/cluster-bomb-development-history |access-date=2023-04-05 |website=youtuberead.com |language=en}}</ref>
