Hungarian mine igniter

[MINENAZ16]

Hello,

I'm looking for pictures of fuze for Hungarian AP Mine M62 and M49. I'm sure "strakv" could help !
I only have diagrams with different shapes (designation of this fuze ?)

Regards

Hi,


In USAREUR Pam 30-60-1 Identification guide part 3 volume II, M49 fuze. Bad pics, I know. It's said that it's the same fuze but with plastic body for the M62.



Regards,

S.

I don't have the manual of these mines, but i guess the M-49 was used with the soviet MUV fuze. Although i've seen some MUV-like plastic body fuzes i never associated them with the M-62. I'll try to find the manual and keep you updated.

I must admit that i'm a bit confused by the 49M. I had always thought that the 49M was a direct copy of the PMD-7 so a MUV was used. Now i found a field manual of the mine and it shows a fuze that resembles the one from the 33M ERA. I guess (the manual doesn't mention) that the fuze didn't get a designation other than "fuze" as the mine might have been packed in kits along with the fuze.
