General: This is an "elbow"-shaped fuze for use in guided missiles. At present it is used only in the nose of "Felx" VB-6. It is essenitally a Nose Mechanical Impact Fuze AN-M103 connected to the remotr windmill arming vanes by a flexible cable. The vane and gear assembly is the same as that used on the Tail Mechanical Impact Fuze M167. The fuze proper is like the AN-M103, except that is does not have the vane cap, safety discs, or arming screws. |
