FUSES

Fuses are fitted to rockets, mortars, and shells and set these off. A fuse may also become detached from the explosive device or munitions, or it may simply be left lying around. A fuse can be very small, but is nonetheless potentially dangerous and can even be deadly.




Main Points:

  • Fuses are as dangerous as Mines
  • Fuses can be large or small.

  • PMA-2 Fuse
