    Ok, thank you other question, is it possibel that some tails are welded to the body, is the tail that they have been using the same as the tail that they screw on the body? i have got some 250 and 500 kg bombs but without the holes for the screws, tail is missing

    Sorry, Ben, you know that's not my special field, but I could come up with some scans out of that source via pm if this might help (next year! ).
