German 40mm Bofors APC Projectile.

I just got a German Bofors 40mm Flak 28 round in a nice steel case. I ask about the projectile as these are scarce in Australia.
What base fuze/tracer fits this projectile ? It has pits but the stamps are still readable.
Looks like : enz 42 11 Ub but I doubt that it is a practice projectile.

123mm length, 74mm cavity with a step at 37.5mm. Weight is 852 grams .

It is indeed a practice projectile. Recognizable by its stepped cavity. I used to have one with a solid dummy plug without a tracer.

Thanks greif.
I see a copper drive-band on yours ? mine is iron. It looked like a Ub but I never thought Germany would bother making a Practice projectile with this shape.
