IRON NEST Ammo Types Overview
A source-backed index of confirmed shell families, specialist effects and ammunition details still awaiting full-release verification.
This page is an ammunition index, not an attempt to present a complete catalog. It separates shell families confirmed by official material or full-release footage from abbreviations that still need identification.
Confirmed in current sources
- Armor-piercing (AP)
- Smoke
- Phosgene gas
- Star shell
- Incendiary shell
Confirmed concepts
The developers say that whether a target is destroyed or disabled depends on the ammunition type and number of hits. Shell choice therefore affects more than visual effect; it is part of the operational solution.
Still being identified
The full name of the H shell shown in current footage is not confirmed. The official “30 Ammo Types and Abilities” statement combines two categories and does not support a checklist of 30 distinct shell types.
