ID Needed for Three Bomb Fuzes

[US-Subs]

Updating some files for a project I'm working on, drawing a blank so far on these three. Long ago I used to have a cheat-sheet for the FMU series, showing the face plates for quick ID. Cannot find it now....

Here are three more. The first has two very faint stamped markings, I'll have to break out a real camera to capture them, but there is not much there. The second is a lightweight aluminum or alloy, one vane snapped off. The last may be termed as a signal rather than a fuze, but I haven't found it yet.

First one, Italian Type F (see TM 9-1985)

As sgdbdr said Type F for the first :






The second is the top part of the italian long tail fuze Type G





And the third, looks like an US device for practice bomb (spotting charge for 100LB M38A2 prac), I'm sure you know it : http://michaelhiske.de/Allierte/USA...2/Part06/Chapter19/Section02/Section02_07.htm

I've never actually seen one of the spotting charges, though the bombs were released as surplus scrap for decades. So much of this can be regional, depending on what installations you worked you may see items that were never used anywhere else. So much to learn... Thanks.

Still hunting for info on the first three. The second looks like a dispenser fuze to me, possibly UK? The first should be an easy ID, just not from my documents.

Picture # 1028-1030: T-770 nose bomb fuze, US, el-mech. anti-disturbance (activated by movement due to contact feature) My guess Korean/Vietnam war era. Attached a cutaway I made!

Thanks Erhard. What threw me off on this one is this item, which is marked as an FMU 54A/B. So the difference is the /B vs the A/B? More fuze questions to come.

 

[Mrfuze]

The difference between these 2 versions is the delay time and the compatibility with the MK43 TDD.

US-Subs, see :
[B-2-3-22] for FMU-54B
[B-2-3-53] for FMU-54A/B

Been off-line for a bit, storm dumped a bunch of heavy wet snow, bringing down lines and such. Power is back on, internet is back up, but it is currently -4F (-20C) which is slowing things as well. Here are a few more fuze ID questions. I'll try and get some better photos in a bit, once I get things around the building running a little better.

The first is typical of many of the Czech fuzes of the period, but the threads and booster don't match anything in my books.
