Does anyone have good pictures / information on the F13 French Grenade Fuze?

We know it is on the DF F1A grenade ... just don't have any good information on the fuze other than the external view of the fuze in the greande. Even Lex's site doesn't have it listed. We are reworking the DF F1A grenade publication and would like to do something up on the fuze.

Nothing out there? Well please keep your ears to the grindstone and if someone comes up with something please let me know. Our manual states this greande exists ... and that we just don't know anything about it other than it is used on the particular grenade / is striker-release / and is French.

Hello

I have nothing very interesting, except these pictures where you can see the strange shape of the fuze.

can you make the picture of the fuze by itself clearer ... it is really fuzzy.

And that is perfect ... exactly what I am looking for ... would you mind mearsuring it as well?
