French 75mm shell ID

Hello,

I’d be grateful if anyone can confirm which type of 75mm shell is pictured below, if it’s the incendiary/flare type or something else?

Thanks
Tony

Hi it has a beehive fuse that was used mainly with shrapnel and HE projectiles

Thanks for the reply.

The fuze is an addition I made as I recently saw what was described as 75mm flare shell in a museum with a beehive fuze however, I've no idea how accurate the description was and can't find confirmation online.

A pic of the beehive if anyone's interested.
