SD2 Fuse Variants

(70)a

HI HARRY
Thanks for showing us your fuze i have a copy of Fuze news dated 15 th November 1944 thats mentions that fuze it reads

A Captured German document dated 20 th Jan 1944 describes the (70) a fuze but says its use against retreating enemy prohibited . Used for nuisance purposes and combating of targets , only for use behind the front lines .

It appeared that this fuze was disliked by the Germans too.!
 
Hi there
Very nice to see the inside of a no 70B fuze (anyone know where I can get one??) Thanks for sharing your pictures Fusse2004, very intresting. Does anyone know the differences between a 70B, 70B 1 and a 70B 2 ?? I know there are only slight but what are they? Would be intresting to know.

Thanks Kev, butterfly
 
Some excellent answers in this thread,thank you all Gents for your info and pictures supplied.
Im hoping to get another example very soon to show. :) Ive one at my pals undergoing restoration and hopefully one from another contact.

cheers

On Specialist Auctions there is an SD2 fuze 41 for sale but with a steel gain, did they have steel gains rather than the usual bakelite type. I wouldn't mind knocking up a couple in steel if any one has any dimensions and the thread size.
 
Although that steel gaine would fit it wasnt made for the (41) Or any of the butterfly bomb fuzes, they were all as far as im aware were made of bakelite

Hello! I do not mean that the transmission load container original am! I know only from Bakerlit for fuzes of the SD-2 Harry
