RFI : French Navy shells "H type"

Good afternoon everyone,

I’m looking some informations on the French H Navy shells (obus type H) developed in the late 30’s.
According to some sources, these 138, 152, 203 and 380 mm shells were modified in order to add an extra DM (adamsit, irritant agent) charge in the body by removing the base-plate.

Thanks in advance.
Regards.
