Hi all,
Does anyone know what type of fuse would have typically been fitted to a French 280mm 1915 Mle 'Mortier' HE shell of great war period?
Just aquired a nice version of said shell minus fuse. (Fuse adapter is perfect).
Thanks for any help chaps.
 
hi star shell
This is a diagram of an HE round steel mounting 280 mm Mle 1915 for 280 howitzer (mortar)

Sir,
You are a star! Iwas hoping for just the slightest info on this, so to have this posted is excellent. Thank you very much. Have you seen any of these fuses around? I get the impression they are not a common find.
Thanks again.
Dylan
