20 mm S.A.P./Incendiary with Phosphorus

Found this document about the 20 mm S.A.P./Incendiary shell on the internet without source.

There is written that there is also a variant filled with phosphorus. Is that post war? And was it filled with White Phosphorus or Red phosphorus.

In the markings about 20 mm ammunition (Handbook of 20 mm Small Arms Ammunition-Land Service, 1943) there is no S.A.P./Incendiary with green body mentioned.

Greetings - Antoon
