Hello
Ww1 german fuze for different trench (mortar) projectiles (9cm, 15cm, 15.8cm, 26cm, etc). Impact all ways fuze (the safety cap is missing).
Well known on 9cm.
Also known as "Poppenberg" used by Austro Hungarian with different mortar projectiles (22cm, 15cm).
I don't know if there is a german official designation. I only saw Aufschlagzünder für...
French call it "Fusée Lanz".
