    Default 25lb Practice Bomb

    This weekend I found this guy in an antique shop and I really couldn’t resist myself from taking it back with me, it was a pretty good price so I got it. It’s definitely been dropped off a plane a couple times but I’m trying to figure out a date for it. I’ve seen some saying it’s 60s-70s but a quick google search shows it being used on planes that looked very modern. Just wondering when these were being used and if they still are used. It measures just over 2 foot.

    Thanks,
    Bodhi

    The "75" at the end of the lot number could be the date you're looking for. Not sure if the "10" is part of the date, but if it is, it probably stands for October 1975.

    Thanks! Good to know it’s not too modern.
