Description
These fuzes modify the Nose Clockwork Aerial Burst Fuze M111A2 by the addition of a detonator slider held out of line until the fuze is partially armed by a crank-shaped arming stem. The four fuzes in the series are identical, except for the boosters employed; the AN-M128 has the booster of the M127 (tetryl); the AN-M145, that of the M138 (tetryl-clay pellet); the AN-M146, that of the M111A2 (black powder); and the AN-M147, the AN-M126A1 primer detonator, instead of a booster.
