Description of the FMU-143 B/B Fuze System: The FMU-143 B/B Fuze System is an electromechanical fuze system that provides impact delay detonation for penetrating warheads. The fuze contains an explosive train, which is mechanically and electrically out-of-line until specific weapon launch cycle events have occurred. Once a valid l aunch has occurred, the fuze will arm in the selected arm time. The B/B configuration has a selectable arm time of 5.5 and 12 seconds. It has a fixed detonation delay after impact of 60 milliseconds. The fuze is powered by an air-driven turbine generato r power supply called the FZU-32 fuze initiator. The initiator is non-explosive and has no specific safety requirements. The FMU-143 Fuze System is comprised of the following elements: (1) basic fuze with arming and safety pins attached, (2) a fuze aft mounting retainer, (3) a retractile cable assembly, (4) a swivel and clip assembly, and (5) a FZU-32 initiator. Two each of these five elements are included in each shipping container. The fuze is housed in an aluminum cylinder (with chem film finish), 8 in. long and 3 in. in diameter. The fuze is equipped with a safety release assembly (housing and safety release shaft), and a connector to accept operating power. The fuze has a screwdriver adjustable selector feature to select arming delay times. The fuze is threaded into the fuze well located at the aft end of the penetrator warhead. The retractile cable electrically connects the fuze, via an internal warhead conduit, to the FZU-32 initiator installed in the charging well approximately in the middle of the warhead. The initiator is secured by the aft fuze mounting retainer. Prior to operational use, the fuze may be stored, transported worldwide, installed in a weapon, loaded on an aircraft, and flown during captive carriage without release.
