Recently acquired these French fuze LD Mle 1917 with 9 rounds and Mle 1918 with 10 rounds.
The latter is relatively rare because I have not seen a lot of documentation on internet.
Maybe you have other models.

Hello,

Are you able to disassemble the mle 18 LDA to check if it's a Time fuze or a Time and Percussion fuze ?
(mle 18 LDA is not a common fuze).
I'm also interested by dimensions (total length of Mle 18 LDA and visible length when screwed on shell).
Merci.

Regards
