Hello,
As you can see the shape is exactly the same as common french fuzes with 24mm thread, so used on captured French artillery shells, mortar projectiles, bombs.
We could imagine this fuze could be used too on french design ordnance used by other country during ww2 (Poland for example).
Regards

My one has been threaded to take the standard 10mm thread so it can be used for mine fuzes but fits a mortar round.
