Interesting manual, but it's 50 years old.... by 1968, the manual was completely obsolete.

I design sensors for modern fuzes (for the past 37 years), and believe me that things are lights years more sophisticated than in 1966.... Think smart fuzes, MEMs (wafer based) and micro-electro-mechanical...

Impact, delayed response, instantaneous, air burst, multi-functional, programmable, ESAF, ESAD and on and on. We attend the NDIA Fuze Conference (closed to the public and Foreign Nationals) every year. This year, we are presenting our latest (patent pending) technology.

Don't worry, that means billions to spend on palm readers, tarot card readers, sooth Sayers, mentalists, psychics, and evil thought sniffing tribbles. And any teenage girl who channels angst. And what do they all have in common? They can all tell you so after the fact because they could just sense it........

Sure, but they've made a lot of good advances in counter-turbanbomb technology. Armor sloping in different places than vs tank shells, cool thermal toejam, sci-fi toejam you'd never even think of
