Soviet PTT Fuzes

[jvollenberg]

Here are some interesting Soviet PTT fuzes from the Aberdeen Ordnance Museum:

One is made of Brass and Aluminum the other only aluminum.
They can go from 5 to 140 seconds.

The aluminum one goes to 140 seconds the brass and aluminum to 130 seconds.

Measurements:
Dia: 63MM
Length: 80MM
Exposed: 80MM

Any idea the nomenclature of these?

Anyone else have these types of fuzes they would like to post? I would like to work on some of these EOD 60-series publications (since we are working on these 2 fuzes and would like to see others to update the old pubs).

As I run into others I will add to this post, for fun.

The gradiation in these Soviet fuzes is not seconds, but one number corresponds 43 meters projectile flight when fired with 76mm cannon M/02

This is russian 22-seconds fuzes. 22-seconds double-action tube fuze destined for completion in 76-mm shrapnel shells and propoganda mortar mines (WW2). This tube provides a gap of shrapnel in the air, and at a meeting with the barrier.

Can meet the tube three brands:
22P - which were intended to divisional artillery shells,
22PG - which were intended for shells division, regimental, and mountain guns;
22G - which were intended for shells mountain guns.
The tubes of these brands differ only in the fuses resistance.

"K" on the scale means - buckshot.
"УД"="UD" on the scale means - impact.

Used in WW1 and WW2 (should be the mark with year)
