Uranium is extremely toxic and pyrophoric, which is not a good combination.
OTOH, with all the crap russia hast been dropping in Ukraine (including blowing up soviet-era stockpiles of solid rocket motors and other explosives which are extremely hazardous chemically, and they were supposed to take care of safely disposing of), if Ukraine wants to use toxic tank shells in order to kick the Russians out faster, they're welcome to.
[Edit:] it's also not the densest metal. That is Osmium. And gold and tungsten (another preferred component of AP ammo) are also slightly more dense than uranium.

There are because the U.K. gave them some. BTW that isn't remotely a big deal as they are less radioactive then naturally occurring rocks plus they are the densest metal known to man and so makes an excellent armor piercing shell. Of course, mention anything on the subject and the idiots will wrongly think it has something to do with nuclear weapons.
