40mm projectile identification 40L60

Hi,
can anyone identify this 40mm projectile?
I tried to search on google, but I couldn`t find this design.
I`m thinking a this could be a German 4cm Flak 28 projectile, but I don`t have any proof.
No markings on this one. Projectile has two screw thread parts, one for the `nose cone` one below the nose cone thread (for booster) Double crimp grooves and tracer hole (not threaded). Nose cone itself also has screw thread for the fuze I presume.
Can anyone give me details on this projectile and which fuze is used.

Best regards, Cornman

Nobody recognizes this (probably German 4cm Flak 28) projectile??
Someone has pictures of 4cm Flak 28 rounds in their collection?

Regards, Cornman
