More Fuzes needing identification

[US-Subs]

Here is the next batch. The Italian two are similar to the M40 shown in TM 9-1985, but different threads. The first is tagged OE 80mm, but one is stamped in English.

First set of images is the MODEL 071 Swedish Rocket fuze.

Hello US-Subs,
The last picture is an Italian fuze I.O. Mod 40 M.C.

Thanks guys

Here are some more. The two small mortars I'm looking for the fuze models, but would be happy with the country and models of the mortars. one is 46.7mm dia, the other 45mm.

The IMG_0052 graphic is the Spanish ECIA fuze for 120 mm, 81 mm and 60 mm mortar shells.

Thanks. Do you recognize 0080? I am thinking Spanish for this one as well, but my references on Spanish are weak and I confuse them with the French.

For what it is worth ... 0069 PUE I have at Dutch. Might put us in the right country at least.

I am assuming, poor on my Italian, that the two different tops are for different delays? Can you explain the difference?

My expectation was more different manufacturers. The Italian fuzes of that period are very strange for me, the internal construction is backwards from US type fuzes, with the detonators forward on many of them. I'd hate to generalize and speculate to the reasoning for construction differences.

OK ... after using Google ... I think I have it figured out, sort of.
The one with the back cap is just a cap (could be for transport or training - doesn't say. It translates to false cap)
The other one has either the instantaneous or regular detonator (cap). I think yours is instantaneous given it is flat where the other one looks more rounded per the drawing. Again, just a guess on that though.

US fuze. Similar fuze in a photo from you post Random :

Dummy fuze for 76/62 (Oto Melara) ?

 

[MINENAZ16]

Markings ANNZ and LOS are German (VT fuze). Same marking PUE as the other fuze :

For previous fuze and the others, you can go to Artillery Netherlands D-10-5-2 (ANNZ fuzes), D-10-5-3, D-10-5-4.
So Dutch VT fuze UA 3020

 

[US-Subs]

Thanks, greatly appreciated. I saw the remains of the writing on the VT fuze, but with no idea it was not possible to make a match. Your description fits perfectly. Do you know if there is a model number for the fuze on the Swedish 47mm?

Projectile : 47mm svinggr m/40
Fuze : m/36 (https://digitaltmuseum.se/011024405012/ogonblickligt-kansligt-spetsanslagsror-m-1936-grk-p)

Hello,

It is very similar to the Spanish ECIA fuze but not the same. The top has a rounded finish that the Spanish fuze does not have. Also, I don't recognize that manufacturing symbol as something made in Spain.
