"V-35" for ZOF-49 120 mm mortar
- Thread starter mogway

Yes the Cyrillic designation is not in doubt, just the ability people have in transcripting it into English or any other language.
The 3V35 looks like a M-12 mortar fuze. I have no info on the internal construction so far. Wish it would be different.

Have you seen it in a round for the D-10T gun?
It is merely an assumption, but both the 100mm 2A70 and the 120mm 2A51 are low velocity guns while the 100mm D-10T has a much higher velocity so the fuzes should be different. Maybe it is only in Hungary but i have never seen OF-32 shells for the T-55 tanks with fuze other than V-429

No, I haven`t. Maybe because in Manual for fuze M-12 we can read this:
"Fuze M-12 using with high-explosive mortars calibers 107-mm and 120-mm."
And in Manual for D10-T, D10-TG and D10-T2C we can read this
"For shoting from tanks guns caliber 100-mm are using those projectiles:
1. Shot УОФ-412 with high-explosive grenade ОФ-412 (with fuzes РГМ-6, В-429 or РГМ);
2. Shot УБР-412Д with antitank-tracer shel БР-412Д (with fuzes МД-8 and ДБР-2);
3. Shot УБР-412Б and 3УБР3 with antitank-tracer shel БР-412Б (with fuzes МД-8 and ДБР-2);
4. Shot УБР-412 with antitank-tracer shel БР-412 (with fuze МД-8);
5. Shot УПБР-412 with practise tracer shell ПБР-412;
6. Shot УОФ-412У with hihg-explosive grenade ОФ-412 (only for D10-T)."
Mogway,
Your inbox is full, but in answer to your PM, the third line is Comp B.

Maybe because that round wasn`t put in my manual 1971 year. Myabe you know when did appeare this round? Maybe after 1990 year.
And what exactly I should explain? I don`t see anything in that shot article about fuzes
You asked about fuzes and I answered about fuzes

And 3OF-32 not only for BMP-3
I wrote my comment as an answer to this because i've only seen this fuze in 3UOF17 (for the BMP-3) and never in 3UOF-10 (T-55) although both cartridge use the same OF-32 projectile.
I must check the dates on our specimens but i think it was rather in the 80's
Ah, ok. Knowing you I did not intend to say the confusion was on your side.
Though it seems there are variations in the projectiles for the 2A70:
