The MG 151 (MG 151/15) was a German 15 mm aircraft-mounted autocannon produced by Waffenfabrik Mauser during World War II. Its 20mm variant, the 20 mm MG 151/20 cannon, was widely used on German Luftwaffe fighters, night fighters, fighter-bombers, bombers and ground-attack aircraft. Salvaged guns saw post-war use by other nations.
The autocannon used a wide variety of ammunition types depending on the type of airplane it was being used in, as well as whether they were used in night or day operations. The round with the yellow projectile is most likely High Explosive, while the blue should be incendiary, and the black round without a fuze is armor piercing with an incendiary effect. Each round measures approximately 5 3/4 inches in length.
A wonderful set that comes more than ready for further research and display.
