Yep it good be, but the one that i have is not a HL, its a HE, many thanks Ben
 
Does your have a single part body only or split body to insert eventual hollow charge parts?
If I understand correctly the text in picture I sent SD 10 HL should be dual purpose; Both hollow charge for armor piercing and HE against other targets. It's not said if it is the same bomb for both purposes or 2 different ones of similar appearence?
 
In the paper it says HL, Hollow charge, the bomb is pure HE, because it is a single part body, Ben
 
Just for curiosity, here a drawing of SD 4 HL - dual purpose bomb ( shaped charge for armor piercing and heavy body for splitters against live targets ).
