Hello everyone.

I was wondering if you could ID this Missile/Bomb/Mortar. I thought it was for the mortar for the Forward Observer, but I'm not so sure anymore.

Thanks
Sigfrido

Here's the pic:

It looks like a bomb from the Retaliator. The Fwd Observer mortar shells are smaller and greener and have a ring near the tip.

To confirm: see if the bomb has a rectangular, grilled indentation on the other side.

That looks close, but my Ammo Dump shells have the tube smaller around than the fins. In the pic (and with the Retaliator), the tube portion is bigger around.

Thanks for the help, you're right it has the little ridges on the other side.
