Hello

This is the fourth fuze my chief gives me.

I thougth it's Italian, regards the TM 9-1985 page 147 a drawing like my fuze, but (Yes, I know : allways something wrong !) mine is numbered 46 only.

The dimensions are :
allover length : 65mm
visible length : 51mm
max diameter : 60mm

thanks for any clue,

Ok. thanks... but... it seems there is a lot of fuzes made by krupp.

Do someone know if there is a book or any else document with (all ?) Krupp fuzes ?
 
Pascal, not made by Krupp but a Krupp design which got licenced to many countries around the world. Some certainly also made by Krupp and exported with marking as the cusomer ordered them to be.

Just study Krupp patents and you will recognize any of their designs.
