Hello, small projectile (30 mm x 150 mm) found today in Belgium.
Perhaps it is a sub-calibre mortar?
Top can also unscrew this ( message holder? )
Do you have any idea?
The last photo shows the same object in a collection in the US.
So it’s not a unique piece.
thx !!
some news ,
the projectile has finally been opened.
Definitely not a messenger.
Inside, we find what looks strongly like a booster, the object is also hollow (charge?)
There is a tilt of the tail (rotation or effect for ballistics?)
The head pitch has an anti-horological .
anti-unscrewing that protects against the rotation of the projectile...
