L78a1 fuze container.

Hello Darrol, try this: http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/not-sure-cutaway-t70623.html?t=70623&highlight=l78+proximity+fuze
Don't know. Long intrusion (proximity) fuzes are probably made in far fewer quantities than most other fuzes and probably cost more to make because of the components used. There are probably inert/instructional examples out there so one should pop up every now and again. I worked on 105 mm Field HE, 155 & 175 mm How HE shells in the 1980s and all had canned exploders for use with conventional fuzes but all the exploders could be removed for fitting of proximity fuzes.
