I'd like to know what would happen, does it "enhance" the explosion?

If it were shot into the plastic bottle that's supplied with the Tannerite I don't think it would do anything differently than a regular round. It takes hitting something relatively hard to start the incendiary process.

Well incindiary should be cooking a few feet outside of the barrel. AP requires the aluminum point to be smashed and works its magic from friction burn.
Tannerite isnt flammable as far as I know. It reacts to impacts not heat. The impact threshhold is pretty high too. Pistols wont set it off.
Most things that are flammable wont burn simply by shooting a round of incindiary into them either. You have to have a continued heat source like a candle or road flare. This has been my experience with things like propane tanks.
Edit:
Thats a camp propane tank taking an AK round with a candle about 6 feet out. We were a little over a hundred yards out and we could feel the heat on our faces.
