Here's a few photos of a 25 X 137 APFSDS flat head proof projectile. If anyone has any more information on this I'd be interested in hearing from them.

Dave, odd being a Dutch case as l have a British105mm. APFSDS, type ''H-6" proj. crimped into a Dutch case. l know its not what you want to hear but l've had a heavy day. Cheers, Ron.
 
I worked at the EMZ as a military quality control master. When I worked there, a long time ago, al the components of the 105 mm APFSDS where send to there and where complety assembeld and put on Dutch made cases. This was a big order for the Dutch army. This was also done with 25, 35, and 120 mm ammunition.
 
Thanks blu97, sounds like an interesting job, you must have handled a hell of a lot of shells in your time!!
Dave.
