Hello,
I never saw a real N°136 mortar fuze.
Does anyone could post pictures ?

Never seen. Very similar to the French model RYG . Could it be a 24/31 ?

Hi Minenaz16,

Here is a photo of the British No. 138 mortar fuze which, like the No. 136 was fitted to 3 inch mortar bombs. The No. 138 was threaded to fit the Fuze well diameter of 34.925mm or 1.375 inch (1 & 3/8”). I think it is likely that the No. 136 also was threaded to this diameter. These are both similar to the French model RYG but the thread fit of the No. 138 is larger than the 24/31. It is nearer 35/39.
Regards,
Draoich
