Who can tell me what type of bomb fuze this is? And als has a - cutaway- drawing?
My guess is French or German just post WW1
Thanks in advance,

According to the Popiel, the Polish 12.5kg PuW copy, the bomba odlamkowa 12.5kg could be suspended vertically, with a nose fuze looking as the one shown on this photograph.
Drawing b) show the "ears" (clips?) 10 for installing such a vertical suspension
However I have never seen any photograph of such a suspension in situ
Hi kz11gr, we tried, but the parts are tight after appr 80 to 100 years oxidation, and we do not want to damage it more than nessicery. From the bottom inwards however we can see three weights -spring loaded- that are swung outward by the rotation of the bomb
