13.2mm TuF
The Mauser 13.2mm TuF (German: Tank und Flieger; lit. "Tank and Aircraft", known also as 13.2×92SR), was a major step in the development of anti-tank cartridges, being the first cartridge designed for the sole purpose of destroying armored targets.
History
The cartridge was used in the Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr rifle. Its use was also planned in a new machine gun scheduled for deployment in 1919, the MG 18 TuF.
The 13.2 mm Tuf was design to counter British tanks which made their appearance during late World War I. Since a tank's path was difficult to determine prior to its deployment near the front, land mines were difficult to employ as a deterrent to their forward passage. Thus, another means of combating these early armored vehicles needed to be found. Since early plate armor was relatively thin due to the need to reduce vehicle weight for low powered drive trains to propel the unit, large bore rifles could be used to harass and decimate tank crews. A bullet penetrating the first armor plate would lose most of its energy and be unable to penetrate the vehicle's rear.

Just give me your hands,
And I'll let you feel the wounds.
They put in me.
