Can anyone identify this sub munition please

[Weasel]

I have just seen this picture posted on twtter by @Brown_Mosses and was wondering what it was, apart from about to be armed and remove the holder from the gene pool.
Best regards Weasel.

possibly 'M42D' - Egyptian/Chinese copy of US M77 submunition??

by the look of it, it looks too small to be fired from 155mm or larger and it looks too big for 105mm, so 120mm range?

Heres a couple of close ups of it, The fuze body screws into the charge body

It's one, It's not a M42D submunition. It looks a chinese submunition of the same family as MZD-2 submunition but without the steel ball.

Heres another picture showing the markings on these

These Dual-Purpose Improved Conventional Munitions (DPICM) should be fired with the SAKR-36 rocket.
Whilst information on the submunitions themselves is scarce, it appears that early rockets were loaded with Soviet and Chinese submunitions, including Chinese derived from US designs. Later rockets, including those in current production, are loaded with copies of the US M77 submunition; these are probably Egyptian-produced copies, although some may have been manufactured in China.
