Well I am damned, I never knew they made an Aden in 25mm...I was all set to flame someone there!!
It appears the thing never went into production.
Oddly, this may have answered me a question as I have something very similar in 25mm, but a TP round with a green steel case. It is pristine but the primer has been removed to the powder woudl have gone that way. certainly would explain why it was done to a brand new round.
I have examples of the 30mm Aden and the M778 (TP) round used on the AH64...oddly the same.
A nice thing to have for a good cause.

If it is its not a 25mm Aden its a 25mm KBA naval gun round (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFXYGLkB5Kw). Green case and blue tip marked TP BMO 12-88 (More infor on it in Janes Ammunition Handbook)
This is the other version that doesnt require a man sat in it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaEpI...eature=related . Notice the rounds feeding in the belt system
