We propose a Fulfil Programme to observe six known supernova remnants (SNRs) inthe Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Out of a large sample of 60, these sources arethe last having insufficient Xray observations available. By filling this gap,we will have the largest and most complete fluxlimited set of SNRs in a galaxyobserved with a single mission/instrument. This will provide an excellentbenchmark for the comparison of SNR populations of galaxies in the Local Groupand beyond. In addition, it will reveal the physical properties of each target,such as age, abundances, and progenitor type. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
