Need drawings or pics of the 25lb AP rockets
 

Hi all,

I'm in possession of a AP that is a part of the rocket tube that was attached to a DH98 Mosquito that crashed on 30.03.45 in Norway.
The AP grenade alone weighs 8,5kg but with the rockettube incl.the weight was 12kg. (25lb)
I need to know the total length of the rocket when mounted on the Mosquito,and also cross section would be interesting to have.
Can anyone help??

Warmest regards,
Jagdkommando

Jagdkommando,

As far as I know, the 25 lb. shot, which there were two, was solid and not a grenade as you mention. Are you sure it came from a Mosquito? The Beaus also carried the solid shot R/P.

I'd like to see pictures of what you have.

Dear Stephen,

Sorry for writing the wrong word,I meant a solid 25lb shot. Yes 200% it is from a Mosquitobecause of a particuarly attack on the 30.03.45. Yes I can send u a photo of it,but can I post it here in this forum??
It is a AP (armoured piercing)

Warmest regards,
