Hello

My new restoration project is an ww2 Italian bomb . I get the body but fuse and tail fin are missing .
It is a 15 M type. SAP one.
Off course a complete tail fin will be great ,but I don't believe getting one . If someone can tell me the right measures of this tail , it'll be great. Color pics from private collections will be much apreciated as well .
Thanks in advance.Immagine2.jpgImmagine 029.jpg
 
Here are the dimensions of this bomb: The tail unit is 23cm long with an overall diameter of 16cm. On the color photographs, you have such a tail unit.
