Italian WW2 fuzes used by the Germans

Hallo,
I have found refference on German code for Italian fuzes.
In the manual H.Dv.119/ 4196 Vorlufige Handschutafel fr die 10,5cm Kanone 320 (i) mit der 10,5cm Sprenggranate 338/11 (i) - ital 105/28 -; 10,5cm Sprenggranate 338/12 (i) - ital 105/28 Mon-; 10,5cm Sprenggranate 338/13 (i) - ital 105/28 M 32-; 10,5cm Doppelzndergranate 338/14 (i) - ital 105/28 M32 o.d.e. -, Berlin, 1944

It lists of 4 fuzes:
AZ 1 (i) - M.10
AZ 2 (i) - M.Guerritore p.c.
DoppZ 12 (i) - a.d.e. M.32
DoppZ 13 (i) - a.d.e. M.36

Can someone please help me with other Italian ordnance and fuzes used by the Germans.
The HDv 435/2 mentiones no Italian ammo.
The D50b copy I have has a summary of Italian ammo used, dated 1.11.43, but no actual datasheets (please see the remark at the bottom of the page).

I would be gratefull for any information.

Cheers, Bob

Hello Bob,

Here scans of the cover and the folding page with the German shells. Interesting to see that the Italian mortars also could fire the German shells.

I also found the H.Dv. 119/190 Vorlufige Schusstafel fr die 7,5 cm Gebirgskanone 259 (i).

Cheers,

Many Thanks!

Yes and German shells coul also be fired from Yugoslav, Czech and Polish mortars.
The German mortars could fire French and Dutch ammo, captured Russian mortars vere used with French ammo.

Same with 5cm Russian and French mortars could fire German Wgr 36.

Not to forget 120mm

Bob
