Swedish 90 x 760R Recoilless Practice Cartridge.

[ron3350]

I do not see this cartridge in the old files. Swedish Bofors TP-T Practice cartridge for the 90mm Recoilless gun.

Case has stamps: 173 78 004 crossed out, 173 81 001, 583 78 005 . Z
173 is Bofors loaded 1978 then reloaded in 1981. 583 = Raufoss?

The brown band means Practice. Aluminium fins, steel head on projectile.

My guess is "9cm slövnprj m/61", but I haven't any complete drawings to confirm it.



Cheers,

S.

Unknown rocket- any ideas?

Hi all! I bought this rocket and realised that I didn't actually know what it was from, it appears to be missing the tail fins. Any ideas are very welcome.

I’ve had 3 of these cases now, I suspect they have come from Ireland as the Irish army used the Bofors 90mm PV-III0 gun
