The fuze deisgnation is "3V35" and it is used on all HE types for the 120mm rifled mortar. The round designation is 3OF-49 not ZOF-49, a wide spread error in reading Cyrillic. Even Jane's got it all wrong.
hello,
I am looking for information (photos,drawing,...) on the Russian fuze "V-35" which is mounted on the ZOF-49 120 mm mortar.
Thank you

I would say in reading cyrrillic it is "3OФ-49". Do you have any information about "3V35"?
Yes the Cyrillic designation is not in doubt, just the ability people have in transcripting it into English or any other language.
The 3V35 looks like a M-12 mortar fuze. I have no info on the internal construction so far. Wish it would be different.

Thank you EOD.
As far as i remember this fuze is also associated with the 100mm OF-32 shell of the BMP-3.
Correct!.......
And 3OF-32 not only for BMP-3![]()
Have you seen it in a round for the D-10T gun?
It is merely an assumption, but both the 100mm 2A70 and the 120mm 2A51 are low velocity guns while the 100mm D-10T has a much higher velocity so the fuzes should be different. Maybe it is only in Hungary but i have never seen OF-32 shells for the T-55 tanks with fuze other than V-429
