Hello all,
just wanted to show you my newest items and have a question about them also.
First a 120mm OF 843 1962 dated sectioned model - missing the fuze
Next is a shorter 120mm projectile - also missing the fuze
What are the correct fuzes for them?

Fuze(s)...

MT-LB,

From what my Jane's book is telling me, the fuze for both should be Model 45UTU "Point Detonating" fuze. If there are others, my book isn't showing them.

Hope this helps a little?

120 mm M62 P3

Hi MT-LB,
your second projectile is the 120 mm Mortar M62 P3. In my documentation (US TM D-37-5-155 YUGOSLAV PROJECTILE, 120-MM, HE, MORTAR, M62P3), the used fuzes are UTU M78, UT M68 P1 and MU K92.
 
120 mm M62 P3

Following the Ref of the 3 fuzes (US TM)
D-37-3-68 YUGOSLAV PROJECTILE FUZE, PD, UT M68 P1
D-37-3-6 YUGOSLAV PROJECTILE FUZE, PD, UTU,M78
D-37-5-103 YUGOSLAV PROJECTILE FUZE, PD, UMU K-92

I hope Al'saad shall agree !
 
shorter shell is standard yugoslav M62P1 light mortar shell with fuses yodamaster enlisted. longer is russian OF-843 shell in yu army designated as 'heavy mortar shell' equipped with B-45-TU fuse.
 
Thank you all for the infos - now I only need to find any of them to complete my projectiles.
