Elaz type 17 variants

To name but a few most feared fuzes that the Germans put into mainly SC250 Ariel dropped bombs was the Timed delay Elaz 17 and 17 A.

Up to 85,hour time clocks so the bd man could not tell how long it had left to go.

A heavy coil magnet was used to temporarily stop the clock while a more effective method was used to jam the clock.

Hey Ham,I think greens were usually special fuzes such the 50 and 50 B-Y. Anti-Disturbance

Yellow usually linked to slight delay fuzes like the 28 Anti-shipping.
