Glad to see German Humour is getting better!!
Nice find - do you get to keep or is it off to the dump?
I`d be very tempted to try to undo the plug - is it brass?
 
Hi Hicky,
yepp I kept it but it's already to a collector in Spain, we made a swap, I got an aerial dart for my collection: It's the lowermost on the pic below, and I never have seen this type of dart before, so it might be not easy to get one like that.
The brass fuse plug was not to remove because the bomb was exploded, so the metal of the screw thread was damaged.

Stange is: the normal inside of the bomb located holding tank for the fuse was still inside the bomb body, but also damaged.
You can see it on the pic right-hand of the bomb!
