Spin stabilised missile mechanical impact fuse - has spherical face for distributor balls on independent selector member

摘要

The mechanical impact fuse is for a spin-stabilised missile and has an acceleration lock and an automatic distributor with a spring actuation. A firing pin and ball support moves axially away against the flight direction. Behind the support is a circular spherical face for the distributor balls in the support. The spherical face is part of an independent selector member, causing the automatic distributor to operate in the event of missile deceleration in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the fuse.
