Long incendiary bomb

**SG500** · 11th January 2012, 08:46 PM

Here's one I picked up earlier last year, a bit of an impulse buy and completely outside my normal area of collecting.
Has anyone got a diagram of it they can post to show what all the bits inside are please.
Shown next to one of its shorter brothers for scale.
All INERT etc.
Thanks.
Dave.

Very nice example of an IBEN, first used over Britain during the Baedeker Raids in spring 1942, purely to try and kill the newly formed Fire Guard parties.

NICE, if I'm not really careful I could easily get into collecting these.
