Yoda, for some reason, I missed this post when you uploaded it Anyway here's the info on the rocket and the fuze STRIM 42/50:
The T10 Rocket was developed early in the 1950s and used operationally by the French Armee de l'Air and the Israeli Air Force on a variety of planes (French T-6 Texan T-28 Fennec and Skyraiders, Israeli P-51D, Meteor, Ouragan and Fouga) and later models equipped the Finnish Air Force Fouga Magisters.
This comes from a French Air force Pilot manual dated 1956, and refers to the Heads used operationally:
Head Type 121, 105mm diameter, High Explosive (with fuze STRIM 42/50 Z 214) Overall Length of the Rocket:1.599m
Head Type 131, 120mm diameter, CC ("Charge Creuse" = Shaped Charge) (with fusee STRIM 42/50 Z 210) Overall Length of the Rocket: 1.682m
and here's a drawing of the T10 with Type 131 CC Head
The later models used by the Finns and the French (and possibly some African countries, where this rocket got a bad reputation as under bad storage condition the environmental heat caused the propellant to dry and therefore an erratic behaviour of the Rocket - as a matter of fact the Israelis replaced this rocket by the Oerlikon Sura in the mid sixties) had different parameters:
Engine Outside diameter 80.3mm Wall thickness: 3.7mm Total length 1 012 mm
Rockets (T-10) Range 1km, total weight 28kg, flight speed 340m/s
HE warhead Type 140: Warhead 5lb 9oz tolite, total weight 12.40kg
HEAT warhead Type 151: Warhead 3lb 9oz hexolite 60/40, penetration 35-45cm, total weight 12.40kg
WP warhead Type 145: Warhead 11lbs WP, total weight 12.40kg
Rocket engine: 8.8lbs rocket engine SERAM Type 106
Total length from fin to tip: 1.585m (measured on a Type 151 T10 rocket displayed at a Finnish Museum - this does not fit with the head dimensions appearing in theCordis Ordata dtabase - but this is not the first time that I have found erroneous data in this database)
All heads 120mm diameter
Type 140, 120-mm Frag: Head Length 451mm Explosive 2.5kg Frag range 300m Charge weight no data
Type 151, 120-mm SDE (Shaped charge): Head Length 542mm Explosive 1.4kg Frag range 300m Charge weight 567g
Type 104, 120-mm Inert: Head Length 451mm Explosive no data Frag range 300m Charge weight no data
Type 145, 120-mm WP (White Phosphorous Smoke) Head Length 542mm Explosive 5.5kg Frag range 300m Charge weight 567g
