French Beluga

My French Beluga GR-66-IZ delay fuzed fragmentation submunition that I recently obtained. Thought someone might like to see it. It is about 153mm long, 66mm in diameter and weighs 1.3 kg. It contained 386 grams of RDX/TNT. Does anyone have the antitank or fragmentation submunitions they could show? Bob

Here is the HEAT version in factory cutaway. I've also got one of the drop dummies around here someplace, cannot seem to find a photo at the moment.

Thank you very much, that's exactly what I am looking for.

We have a cutaway of the Beluga dispenser at work complete with submunitions inside. I'll see if I can get a photo next time I am near it.
