Bend Tilt Rod Mine fuzes
- Thread starter jvollenberg

Because only with rod small active area - pressure should be only on small rod, but with bad really bigger active area.
Ivan,
Do you have the manual that states this? I am discussing this with some others and they don't believe me ... I want to show them if possible, that this is what the Russians were thinking.

I know the fuze ... the question being posed is why is it bent? The answer provided by others is so the tank would go over it further before it detonated. I gave them Ivan's answer and they think it's wrong. I believe it is probably a mixture of both reasons.

TM-57 uses with MVSh-57, but not with MVSh
Joe, what exactly they mean? I a bit didn`t understend. What for fuze does fuze need detail #1 you friends think? I don`t know why tank can go further if fuze activates very fast. And as you see, only with body (like stick) you have small active area for working fuze
I'm thinking that from what ever direction and angle the vehicle goes over the fuse some how being bent at the tip helps with functioning as has a larger area of contact,,,,,,, Dave
