    Short 20 mm German ammunition

    Hi

    I wonder what kind of 20 mm ammunition this is and to which weapon.
    Total length about 18.8 cm, length of shell about 10.8 cm.
    Is that aircraft ammunition or what ? Friends of mine have found this type of ammunition in the Narva region.

    Best Regard

    At first glance I would say it is for an Oerlikon AA gun, due to the shape of the case. It is HE (yellow) tracer (red stripe).

      It is 2cm Flak 28 round with high explosive tracer type projectile.

      Caliber is 20x110RB

        Yes, that's it 2cm FlaK 28, an Oerlikon AA gun in 2cm.
