Here is an unsual item that I have had for years and recently re discovered. It has been inerted by scooping out from the base. Firstly I have copied the text from it in case it is not clear on the pics. Does anyone know more about it or the practice bomb it refers to ?
R.M.C THUNDERFLASH

When used in connection with A.R.P practice incendiary bombs to simulate the I.B.E.N, according to the Ministry of Home Security?s instructions, the explosion of this bomb with explosive nose intact will be represented by placing the thunderflash near the practice bomb.
If placed some distance away, it will represent an explosive nose which has broken away on impact.
