Description:
The cartridge has a cylindrical aluminum case designed for electrical firing from an aircraft multi-barrel ejector. Assembled in the base of the cartridge case is an electric primer and a black powder propelling charge. The remaining space is occupied by a dummy charge consisting of an inert charge loaded in a metal can. The cartridge is equipped with a shunting clip over the base to protect the primer from accidental firing during storage, shipping, and handling.
Use:
For training in the use of M1123A1 photoflash cartridges.
Functioning:
