This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety Precautions to Be Observed in Handling German Munitions, Fuzes and Fuzed Projectiles (b) Many types of fuzes are provided with gas escape holes covered by a small metal disc sealed with a drop of wax. The absence of the gas escape hole cover indicates that the fuze has functioned in part, which should cause the fuze and projectile to be regarded as unsafe for handling or transportation. (c) "Instantaneous" fuzes are provided with a safety cap for the protection of the seat for the percussion plunger rod. The absence of the safety cap, or the presence of the percussion plunger rod projecting from the point of the fuze should cause the fuze and projectile to be regarded as unsafe for handling or transportation. 4. Unexploded base fuzed projectiles, and those provided with non-apparent point fuzes, should be regarded as dangerous for handling or transportation until examination by an experienced officer shows that they are safe. 5. German fuzes should never be placed in water with a view to rendering them harmless. Many types of their fuzes contain an internal safety device, composed of a mass of compressed powder, which, if softened or dissolved by moisture, may permit the arming of the fuze, and may thus render a safe fuze dangerous for handling or transportation. 6. "Minenwerfer" projectiles are provided with point fuzes which, in general, are similar in appearance, action and safety arrangements to fuzes provided for guns and howitzers; however, the recent development of a minenwerfer fuze which functions from lateral as well as longitudinal shock should cause these projectiles to be regarded with greater suspicion than those provided for guns and howitzers. 7. Data as to characteristics and illustrations showing appearance and markings of various fuzes and projectiles known to be in service in the German army will be found in appropriate handbooks. 8. Gas shell for guns, howitzers and minenwerfer are provided with point fuzes of the same general appearance and characteristics as those provided for high explosive shell; the safety rules above given for point fuzes therefore apply.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about the use of tanks in battle. Little, however, has appeared about the gunnery systems that are at their core. This book describes and examines the main gun systems of medium and heavy tanks from first use in 1916 in World War I to those fielded in numbers to the end of World War II in 1945, including tanks of the interwar period. Specifically considered are guns of a caliber greater than 35 mm, which have been deployed in numbers greater than 100. The emphasis is on guns mounted in turrets on heavier tracked armored fighting vehicles (greater than 15 tonnes) which were considered tanks. There are, though, exceptions, in that the naval 6 pounder guns in First World War British tanks, as well as the 75 mm guns in French medium tanks of the same period (all turretless) are included. The treatment of gun systems includes sighting and fire control equipment, gun laying equipment, mounts and the array of munitions fired, as well as the actual gun, including its, barrel, cradle, breech, firing mechanism, sights and recoil system. Related to this are issues of gun handling (loading and unloading), ammunition design and rates of fire. Also examined are the maximum impulse and energy generated by firing some of the munitions available that must be absorbed by the gun recoil system.
