Anybody old US Bomb inert filled
found on Aberdeen proving grounds nobody has a good Id on it. The pic is just being passed around
I've looked through my photos from Aberdeen and Picatinny museums, they both had a lot of small bombs in their collection, generally either practice bombs or experimental designs from the 30s. I found a couple similar body designs, but nothing with fins like that.
