Just got back from a few days in Belgium and managed to photograph some nice examples of Belgian fuzes.

Cheers

Hello Pete,

Do you have other details of the second fuze (4th pic) ?
It confirms that this Krupp design fuze was used by belgians :

and your last thread about Belgian projectiles shows a HE 75mm Mle 1906 with this fuze, very interesting : http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/89363-Belgian-Projectiles

Are there any known documents on belgian shells? I have never seen something about belgian artillery shells of 1st WW and earlier and wonder why?

Hello,

I know this book but never seen : "Instruction sur les munitions et artifices de l'artillerie de forteresse, 1913, Guyot Frres".

Thanks Allan - now I can see it. And thanks again blu97, the book contains exactly what I expected: 100% most interesting Krupp material.
