Hi all,

can someone identify what this round used to be? it was found in Belgium, but they used a lot of different 105 mm guns in service like the Leopard, Centurion and AMX tanks. i couldn't find any info looking up the stamps on the projectile. i'm guessing its HE but i'm not sure so please correct me if i'm wrong :)

would love to know what it looked like before it got smashed!

(also i can't seem to find the option to turn the images upright :confused:)

By rotating band and crimp groove it appears to be a 105 Howitzer HE projectile.
