Ordnance supply catalog ORD 11 SNL S-1

[Antoon]

Hello,

I am looking for the Ordnance supply catalog ORD 11 SNL S-1 from October 1944 or beginning 1945 to see when the Bomb, fragmentation, 220 lb., AN-M88 is mentioned for the first time.

Greetings - Antoon

It's mentioned in "Advanced Fuze & Explosive Ordnance Bulletin" no. 12 from January 1945 (p. 198)
In no. 13 from Feb 45, it's said "To be produced in spring of 1945 as replacement for 260-lb. AN-M81" (p. 218)

Book is available here : https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/8318360

Cheers,

S.
