ID project 10 - Bomb edition

[US-Subs]

A few bombs. As I'm on the road I'm pretty much limited to internet research and its not working too well so far -

Bomb 1 - it looked to me like some of the Spanish ones seen in Iraq, but I thought that they had screw-in lugs. Approx 27.5 x 145cm
Bomb 2 - Polish... 21 x 104cm
Bomb 3 - 27.5 x 107cm
Bomb 4 - 31 x 217cm
Bomb 5 - Similar to an M117, but I have a smaller diameter and different nose and base. 32 x 116cm
Bomb 6 - 22 x 105cm

Bomb 3: FAB-100 SV
First produced in 1932 then modified in 1934-35-36 - the photograph is more compatible with these late models with reinforced ogiva
Diameter 280mm Length without fuze: 1034 to 1050mm
designated R-100 by the Spanish Republicans

Bomb 4: FAB-250
First produced in 1929, modified in 1931-32-33 - the photograph is more compatible with a 1932 or 1933 model, with 2 collars of suspension
Diameter 318-323 mm Length 2163-2173 mm without fuze
designated R-250 by the Spanish Republicans

Photo 4b - Vaaraton means "safe, without danger" in Finnish, I understand that this means that the bomb was defuzed in 1985

Very nice photographs.

The bomb is not mine, I'm working on a project photographing and scanning ordnance from different locations. At this one we are trying to do nearly 1000 pieces in three weeks, long days and the identification can be difficult when the site has little or no information.

The Czech designation of the bomb is OFAB-250-270 (TU) according to the manual from 1990.
In other documents it is referred to as OFAB 250-270 with breaking assembly TU 250-270 or just OFAB 250-270.
The 250 OF is the designation of the bomb warhead only, as Akon correctly identified.
The inert warhead (as the one in the picture) is listed in the logistics inventory list from 2008 as: Hlavice OF-250-Nh (Mars)
Hlavice - warhead
Nh - náhradní - literally translated as substitute. In Czech ammunition nomenclature - inert

Best, Bob.
