Repaying with a Camal gun

Listy

I've used these forums for research in the past, and its been very helpful. So I figure I should repay that with something of interest I found.

I write a weekly military history article, and this week I focused on what seems to be an utterly unknown gun and type of projectile. At least they are unknown to me and Google, you experts might have heard of them before. The Article is here.

However there's a bit more to that story which I felt wasn't of interest to the general public, namely the shells themselves. So here's the pictures of the shells. Apologies for the skewed perspective on two of them.

And finally the HEAT round:
