Question I need Information

I need some information and I need it from someone who knows or can point me to a website that does.

What I do not need is "I think" or "I guess" . That's how I ended up with this problem to deal with so don't both commenting if you don't know.


I need a list of all the Russian 125mm "sabot" rounds were available for export.

So far I have

BM-9 which was the first thing offered to prospective clients and is the basic steel cored APDS

BM-15 which made an apperance in 1972 and was, according to one source .. the "most advanced 125mm round available to Soviet client states until the end of USSR"

BM-42 which has ..." been exported in the recent years for use with more modern Russian and Ukrainian export tanks " and with that they specify the T-80 and up NOT the T-72

So according to this the only "sabot" available outside Russia other than the basic BM-9 was the BM-15 until the end of 1991. After that at some point BM-42 was made available for export but when exactly...... IDK

What I need to know for certain is this......


1/ Was anything between BM-15 and BM-42 exported ?? If yes, what was it and when was it shipped to and ( in my dreams ..) to who ??

2/ What year was BM-42 first exported ??

If what I already have is correct the most advanced sabot round available to any nation outside Russia up to 1992 was BM-15 but what I have may not be the whole story and I hope someone has that info .


Thanks

Don
