French 25mm Hotchkiss Drawings.
Just thought id post this pic in case no one has come across it yet. Few diagrams on the 25mmx163 French Hotchkiss AA cannon round. It seems the only serious users of this weapon and its ammo were the Japanese Navy (and Army). The Germans did use small numbers of the captured French guns in WW2 and even produced their own ammunition. The German manufactured rounds are stamped with the 2.5CM designation on the headstamping. Regards, Tim.

So, it is a French Hotchkiss anti-tank round?
(Mine is rimless, like the Jap, the pics of the French 1934 At version all seem to have a rim - but I am using a search engine not a scientific method )
Thank you, Lebus,
