Description

Fuze M907E1 is similar to fuze M907 in respect to operational and functional features, physical dimensions and weight The differences between fuze M907E1 and fuze M907 are as follows:

a. Vane plate assembly has been advanced 20 turns so that fuze M907E1 will arm approximately 0.8 seconds faster, thus assuring arming at preset functioning times below six seconds. At preset time of 4 seconds, arming will occur before functioning but not earlier than 1.5 seconds.

b. Each fuze M907E1 has been marked with a red dot under the timing index to assure that the personnel assembling the fuze to the munition will know that it is not an M907 fuze, when performing the safety checks.

c. A yellow notice tag has been added. This tag describes the shorter arming time, and it states that as a result of advancing the arming time, the notch in the arming gear may not be in alinement
