Thought I'd show my only example of a VT fuze or proximity fuze.

Can anyone tell me anything about which rounds this was used with please?

Cheers,
Andy

Not having any Swedish pubs handy, I'd say that it was made for the 3" 50cal automatic anti-aircraft gun that was prevalent during that era. Stayed up later that I'd wanted so I'll look around tomorrow. Bruce.
