Warsaw Pact shells

Hi,

The sort out continues!

Can anyone help with identification of these shells, all bought in Hungary about 10 years ago.

Thanks in advance.

Also found the cartridges on picture 3.

They seem to be Russian 37mm AP-T type BZT.

Hi Geert,

Brilliant!

Thanks again for the ID and additional info.

The Russian rounds look crude but effective!

Cheers,

Gary

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the link! I'd forgotten that site.

I think I've also worked out that the third round is the Russian BZT without the ballistic cap.

Thanks to everyone for their help.

Cheers,

Gary
