ABSTRACT:
The fuze comprises a primer-carrying rotor and an inertia mass tensioning a spring under the effect of the acceleration at the start of the explosion. The inertia mass entrains the rotor at the outlet of the firing muzzle in the armed position, under the action of the spring against the retarding action of an anchor rod. The fuze comprises a reduced number of components permitting ensuring successively detonator safety, muzzle safety and a substantial trajectory safety.
