Hoping someone here can help me ID the exact factory "M" designation for the primer used on the, MECAR 90mm M697 TPFSDS-T round used on the Cockerill KEnerga round? Grateful for any assistance.

The M692A2 HESH-TP-T and the M689 AP-slug cases are primed with M913 primers, so I would say the M697 is most probably also primed with the M913 primer.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I am super grateful for your insight and information, Greetz. The MECAR 90mm 690A1 APFSDS-T Cockerill KEnerga round also used the M913 primer, so you are probably correct that the M697 TPFSDS-T round may as well. Super grateful for you help.
