British Pocket fuzes

Hi, Fusse2004,

the british fuze pockets are filled with CE pellets or TNT pellets.
If a pistol was used, you find there in a primer-detonator.
See drawings hereby, sorry but the explains are in french.

As far as I can see it's the fuze and booster of a 20 Lb clusterbomb. A fuze, as it has a CE gaine connected.
Here a picture of the charge in the booster
