I thought i would show you this Sectioned SD50 bomb , i picked up in a deal some years ago , i only went to view some militaria for the Channel Islands , and ended up with this . the fuze and the bomb were used in Foyles War.

Hi Lee
I picked the fuze up from ebay a few years back , when ebay allowed such things, for a very modest tenner, the guy also threw in a American VT fuze , which is somewhere in the garage will have to clean it up and display.
 
Very nice! I bet it was a bugger to cut that case though? :tinysmile_twink_t:
What type is the fuze?

best

waff
 
Hi Paul
The fuze is a (25)B im not sure about the bomb i think it was sectioned at a factory, the chap i bought from , was his late fathers collection, ive got the same case with a (17) fuze shown

There does not appear to have a fuze pocket extending across the filler section.

If this is cut in half, there must be another one somewhere ? :tinysmile_twink_t2:
