Weapon Identity 1941

Hello all,

would anyone be able to identify this item, it is reported to date from May 1941 and the incident involving bombs falling on Dublin, Ireland.

Is it perhaps a flare? The holes I have assumed were from deactivation of the item.

The bottom of the device under the tail fin assembly has a threaded cap which could be removed using a coin type device to turn a slot in the threaded cap.

best regards

Dennis
