    Product Details

    The Bomb Mk I features a forged steel body profile with a solid nose approximately 1.9 ft. long and a slight taper from maximum diameter to the tail. The base is threaded externally to take a tail adapter, and internally to take a base adapter that receives the exploder container. The fuze is locked in position by a fuze securing ring.

    Variants Mk II and III are similar to the Mk I, differing only in the tail adapter, which has four equally spaced threaded holes for tail attachment. The Mk IV is modified to accept a Tail Pistol No. 30.

    Tail configurations modeled include the No. 1 Mk I, with an aluminum-alloy cylindrical strut and four vanes; the No. 15 Mk I, made of steel with a strengthening ring; and the No. 47 Mk I, with a cylindrical strut, four riveted fins, and a reach rod supported by a spider. The bomb is suspended from the aircraft by two suspension bands.
