its a 25 to 30lbs practice bomb and I'm wondering if its modern or WW2 era. This thing is solid and heavy, the tail section is hallow and it has a hole bored thru from nose to tail, and from my understanding the holes on the side are smoke charge fittings, so when the bomb hit the ground after its drop, it would go off to signal where it landed.
My only reason for thinking it could be WW2 is because its shaped like a WW2 bomb and has a bit of hidden surface rust. 23inches long. I tryed my best to get a close shot of the writing without blurring but it was either blur, or glare.
