can anyone give me more details about the practice bomb in the picture? I'm looking for technical details (official designation, weight, length, diameter).
I found out that it is probably a Swedish low-level practice bomb (designation M 72?), possibly to practice the engagement of the Swedish 120 kg low-level bomb VIRGO.
The picture is from a test in Switzerland in 1976, hence it was mounted (probably inverted) on a CBLS 200 bomb rack on a Hawker Hunter FMk.58.
Thanks in advance
