Thought to post some pictures of 3 variations of projectiles for the WW2 Hotchkiss 25mm anti-aircraft gun (25x163). Pictured is the standard French projectile on the left, middle is an all steel type (probably produced during the German occupation) and on the right is a Japanese Type 96 projectile. Cartridge case for the steel projectile was clearly made during the occupation of France. Not sure if the steel projectile is for practise or an attempt to remove copper/brass from the construction.
