20421 Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Could some one show me how a extended fuze looks like (drawings/photos)? Is it just a simple 18 “or 36†tube with a M904 Fuze or is it something different? Is it still in use? Erik Peter Meijer Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 The US seem to like the higher tech bombs now a days. Those are mainly for use with the Mk80 type of bombs. For blowing things up above ground as opposed to cratoring. Link to post Share on other sites
Skull Leader Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 To my knowledge, we (the US) haven't actively used fuse extenders (also known as "daisy cutters") since shortly after Vietnam. Link to post Share on other sites
yardbird78 Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 To the best of my aging memory, they are just a pipe with the fuse threaded into the end and a couple of straps and a thin tube to hold the arming wire in place. Darwin Link to post Share on other sites
