Armament 81 and 120 mm smoothbore mortar bombs. Development By Borletti for mortars in Italian service. Description The FB 282 fuze is a dual-purpose super-quick or delay type, designed for use with 81 or 120 mm mortars. The fuze uses a direct action striker for super-quick functioning and a graze pellet and pyrotechnic element for delay functioning, which is designed to operate to very low-impact angles. Safety is in accordance with MIL-STD-1316 and there is a pull wire for safety in handling, shipment and
paradropping. The fuze has an external Safe and Armed indicator. The fuze has a plastic nose cap, removable to increase the PD sensitivity for operations on snow or soft surfaces. Manufacturer F B Borletti.
