Ammunition relic identification

Good evening,

Here is a picture of an ammunition shell found recently on the crash site of a
german's fighter in the south of France.
Does anybody can identify the gun's type that was using this munition ?

Thanks in advance.

Too few pictures or at least dimensions. I guess it's 20x82 with electric primer from MG 151/20 cannon. www.municion.org/20mm/20x82Electric.htm

Vince,

auj - is the manufacturer: Polte Armaturen und Maschinenfabrik A.G., Werk Grüneberg (Nordbahn), Schlesien
42 is the year of production: 1942
The remaining two marks would be the production batch and steel mill code.

The latter two would require further confirmation.

Regards,
Sinisa

Post No.5 refers. Kaczmarek, thank you. Perhaps you can confirm the ammunition calibre as well?

Two possibilities MG 151/15 or MG 151/20. We should see the complete shell.

Hi all,

Thanks you for your responses.

Here are some new pictures that should help identifying
the exact type of munition (MG151/15 or 20).

The plane it is coming from should be a FW190 but i don't know
exactly what version. is it possible that it is an MG FF munition shell ?
