DEVELOPMENT OF POINT-DETONATING FUZE, M524 (T186E11)

Abstract

Point-detonating (PD) fuzes of the T186 series were designed for selective superquick or delay (SQ/D) impact functioning with improved high explosive (HE) and chemical shell for 81- and 105-mm mortars. Although work on 105-mm mortar ammunition has been suspended, development of the T186 series of mortar fuzes was continued for 81-mm rounds.
