20mm Hispano Or Not??

Is this projectile a 20mm hispano?

What type of projectile is this and what would the correct case be that i should be on the look out for to complete the round?

Any other information from the experts about this projectile would be great.

Projectile stamped: 28 15 14

Cheers,
Darren

Unlikely Hispano.

Pretty sure that is not a Hispano projectile as it looks more like a BMARCo/Oerlikon projectile for a weapon such as the RH202.

Nice projectile and Fuze cap.

Not sure about the copper driving band as I would have expected a "Sintered Iron" band on a BMARCo produced item !

See attached picture for similarities.

Thanks for the input Chris, with a bit of luck someone here will know for sure what this is.

If you are a Hispanic 20x110 projectile HEI-T
