Australian 20 Pdr APDS Projectiles.

[ron3350]

I show two Australian projectiles for the Centurion tank.

1. Practice 20 Pdr DS/T Mk 3/3 dated 1973 made by De Havilland, Melbourne Australia with a nice DH aeroplane trade-mark.

2. Proof DS projectile 8lb 13oz 3dr made by BHP, Broken Hill and dated 12-65.

These projectiles are not often seen overseas.

So awesome! Both are new to me, so thanks SO much for these awesome reference photos. I have never seen the aircraft stamping like the one on your TPDS projectile before either. FANTASTIC
