    Need ID incendiary or something else

    Sorry don't have the full measurements, but approx 14" or a little longer. Looks close to a 2lb incendiary but the fuzing is different. Also inside the cut away is a flexible plastic tube that runs the full length on the body. This container hold a substance that is grainy and oily.

    An waiting to see if I can get a couple more photo and better measurements

    Looks a bit like AN-M54 without the tail?

    I was thinking M 54 but wanted to be sure.

    The middle item is the fuze for either the M-114 or Brit SPD MK 1 biological bomblet. can't tell for sure which one as the whole item is not shown. I have a large digital folder on those items - need to go through it again ot see if I can ID the photo.

    right, this was to be the weapon used on Germany. The final design was the M 114. later it was also used with Brucella. The M 114 was phased out and replaced by the M-61.
