Then please explain the spherical blast patterns of the British static tests posted in this thread?

If you place that round in sealed 50gal drum hanging staticly in the center and detonate it, the drum will act similar in response to the belni's rear section because both are for intensive purposed sealed compartments. When it detonates on contact to the outside of say the sealed 50gal drum it will detonate out and forward with a contact fuse. If it is the version of the round to ignite fuel tanks with a dealyed explosion it will be the general explosion you are speaking about.

Here, this is an excellent reference.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

The HE(M) shell had a time-delay fuse so it would detonate inside the wing/fuselage structure.
