Had to "dumb this down a little" so I found this article which I hope will help others on the various types of mortar fuzes out there, some background, how they work, what applications they're designed for and where the tech is going (Some already here now, article was written in 2004.). If you click on the authors name you'll find other articles he's written and a further search revealed he's also written many books on military avaition matters as well. Free Library
is not a "WIKI" type site.

This second ref. was most helpful in a discussion IMP started on dare I say it...maybe in a different way "Charlie Mike". Not to worry not going there again!?! Be careful Global Security doesn't want to be free anymore so you'll only get 7 visits per month free now otherwise it's 9.95 per, the dirty rotten...basses, and make sure you descale them good before cooking!?! Interesting research project all this though.
