Diameter of the rear body 180mm - thus we speak of a 50kg order bomb
Lenght of the fins 24cm with "ribbing" on the fins
Would you have some more details? where did you find it?
The general shape of the fin and the struts indeed "have a French flavour" but these dimensions do not correspond to any known French bomb - a fin length of 240mm goes generally on French bombs with a body diameter of 120mm not 180mm. The "ribbing" is also uncommon on French bomb fins as well as the light blue-grey colour.
Ths does not see either to be a German or an Italian bomb tail.
