I think you may find that this detonator comes from a specially modified 250kg-500kg bomb group used in specialised mission against the Allied Navies c1943-onwards.
It seems to be far more refined in it's finish than some earlier war examples-hope i am right-otherwise i will just sound like another one of those "experts" who are always feeding us horseshit on the Discovery Channel...
