2 PR HV SAP projectile question.

I've got this 40x157 SAP projectile and I can't find any information on it. Projectile is 149mm in length and has a large treaded area to the base 39.7m deep. Projectile marked S.A.P. HV I/(unclear) BTHCoN 5/45.

Do you think the treaded area was for a plug similar too (but deeper than) an 'S' gun or a base fuze making a SAP HE?

An ideas appreciated
