T75 bomb fuze for VB-1 and VB-2 AZON Bomb

Hello,

As far as I know the 1000 lb. VB-1 and 2000 lb. VB-2 AZON bombs were only provided with the nose fuze (AN-)M103-series.

But there is tail fuze special developed for the VB-1.
This was the T75 and is an AN-M100A1 series tail fuze modified to fit the VB-1 tail section.
An anemometer arming system has been installed, and a spacer ring fits around the upper section of the fuze to provide space and support for the fuze.

The T75E2 was made for the VB-3 RAZON bomb.

Has this T75 ever used, or what it only a development. And if used why not for the 2000 lb. VB-2?
