OP
1667 describes and illustrates Japanese explosive ordnance. It covers bombs,
bomb fuzes, land mines, grenades, firing devices, and sabotage
devices.
This
work was intended to provide general descriptions of these fields of ordnance
for instructional and informational purposes. It superseded the publications on
Japanese explosive ordnance issued by the U.S. Navy Bomb Disposal
School.
Every
item in this volume is fully described in complete detail, including
specifications, description, construction of body and tail, operation,
employment, and remarks. Each item is illustrated with one or more highly
detailed B&W tone drawings of the exterior and/or cutaways or sectional
views of the interior. The level of detail in this volume is amazing.
This
was the first of two volumes. The second volume covered Japanese Army and Navy
ammunition. (I am still trying to locate a copy of the second
volume.)
First
published 14 June 1946 by the Bureau of Ordnance, Navy Dept., Washington, D.C.,
