Fuze Extractor Freddy Mark 1

Aircraft & Exhibits, 1940-1945, In Storage, 1990/0046/T

The Freddy Mk 1 was invented by Squadron Leader Eric Moxey at the start of the Second World War. It used compressed air to remove the fuze from unexploded enemy bombs, enabling RAF personnel to stay at a safe distance while it was disarmed.
