L15A1 155mm Questions
- Thread starter DanTheMan
- Start date
Shell 155mm HE L15A1 is for the FH70 but is compatible with other equipments.
In this case the L15A1 has been barred out because it is an in-service descriptor and Royal Laboratories wanted to use it in a trial and this is probably Shell 42 in the trial series.
That fuze has no place on any 155mm HE shell.
Did someone put it on or was it part of the trial?
If you look closely you should find that the shell empty body is to design SX1122.
