Re: unexplosed bombs in a P47 crash
Hello
There is an airscrew on the nose of the bomb which, lasting the fall turns and arms the detonator.1000 round are needed minimum before the bomb is armed. This screw was fixed during the flight with a thread of brass. When the bomb is released, the thread breaks, and the airscrew can rotate.
