Fuse

[Bob7.62W]

One for the fuse collectors, if somebody could ID this one for me please;

It's 86mm diameter, 84mm high, apparently not English by the style of lettering. Marks are few, an n and a 3 either side of a capital T, a capital K with a scroll on the K arm, a 4, and y u on the settings band.

Hi

Most probably a russian 45 seconds T&P fuze



Found in that book : КУРС АРТИЛЛЕРИИ - КНИГА 5 БОЕПРИПАСЫ (Artillery book 5, Ammunition)
Available online here (for example) : http://farposst.ru/1279839175-kurs_artillerii__kniga_5__boepripasy__1949_.html

Thanks guys, could you hazard a guess as to what hardware this size of fuze would have been used in?

As far as I know 107mm, 122mm and 152mm Shrapnels.
