US M126 Fuze

Well-Known Member
Does anyone have any decent images on the AN/M126 or AN/M126A1 nose fuze, or its packaging, as used for the 100lb M47 bomb?

I've got a 1943 crate for 4 cartons of 12 fuzes, and would like to be able to show what the contents were.

Thanks in advance,
PB

Thanks chaps,

That's a good start.
As my original crate is a bit worse for wear, and is missing the lid, I'll be making up some repro crates for display purposes.
The markings, especially the yellow printing, has faded almost to invisibility, so I've been carefully copying what remains and transfering it to the CAD model for reference:

All the best,
