Limitations Bpn

Do not use these fuzes for firing at targets closer than 731 meters 800 yards to friendly positions. Use the highest charge commensurate with range for maximum fuze reliability. Fuzes are not fully effective against airborne targets. After proximity arming, fuzes may function under influence of nearby bursts or fragments. Firing on overcast days can result in increased frequency of downrange prematures. Not all models are interchangeable for use in all weapon systems. See Difference Between...
