Hello,

It's not a base fuze but a gaine n°10.

Regards

For example doc of N°9

Interesting ... not what was on the museum inventory.

Any ideas what it is used on?

LCN,

You beat me to it!

I can find no reference to the gaine in Land Service publications, thus it would appear to be solely a Naval store, hence it's appearance in BR 932.

(The table shows a few additional projectiles the gaine was used in.)
