When the fuzed bomb is dropped, the arming wire is retained in the bomb rack in order to free the arming vane assembly, thus causing it to rotate in the airstream. After traveling thru the air at a predetermined distance, the arming of delay mechanism is completed and further rotation unscrews the arming mechanism from the fuze... [Pg.969]

When the fuzed bomb is released free to arm, the vane carrier is unlocked from the striker flange by withdrawal of the arming wire. The vane carrier then rotates by action of the airstream on the arming-vane assembly, driving the reduction gears which arm the fuze. Completion of 175 revolutions of the arming-vane assembly (which requires ca 1000-ft of air travel along the trajectory) arm the fuze fully. [Pg.969]

Before release. Before the fuzed bomb is released, the arming wire prevents the arming vane from turning. The end of the firing pin in the hole in the rotor holds the rotor in the unarmed position with the primer out of alignment with the arming pin and detonator... [Pg.976]

MT Nose Fuze AN-M146A1, shown in Figs 4-17a and 4-17b is cylindrical in shape, diam of body 1.93-in, overall length 6.3-in and total wt 1.6-lb. It is equipped with M19A2 detonator and its booster contains 110 grains of BkPdr. When the fuzed bomb is released the arming wire withdraws from the fuze and remains in the bomb rack. [Pg.993]

The tilt-fuzed bomb is placed under the floor of the car, approximately 12 inches in from the door and 6 to 8 inches forward of the door jamb. After the det is unplugged, the toggle switch is flipped on. If the red light comes on, it means there is power to the det jack. If the detonator were plugged in at this point, the bomb... [Pg.86]
