Allan,

I'm thinking it is the Mk. 27 U.S. Navy fuze, or a foreign copy. I've never seen a brass booster before on the U.S. stuff.

Thank you for the info Hazord

You are always welcome Allan! It's too bad that the drawing doesn't detail the internals very well. Maybe some of the other guys have better drawings.
