Fuze?

The infobox claims "Three ZDZ 29 pressure fuzes". However there are two problems with this:

The ZDZ 29 fuze is the fuze of the German Tellermine 29 or 35. Which takes about 100lbf to set it off. Not what's appropriate here. It's also a pre-war fuze, and quite well engineered. Not an ersatz or late-war device, let alone Japanese desperation.
Didn't this lunge mine use three pegs to set the stand-off distance for the shaped charge jet, whilst the fuze was a single fuze, in the handle stick (there's some report of this being either a shear-pin, or less credibly as a pull string). But no triple fuze. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:54, 12 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Removed reference mirror

A searchable text mirror of Japanese Explosive Ordnance (Bombs, Bomb Fuzes, Land Mines, Grenades, Firing Devices and Sabotage Devices) is listed here for future reference. Unfortunately this website is somewhat difficult to navigate and does not preserve the original page structure of the publication, so it was replaced with a the pdf currently linked.^[1]

Some Sources seam to not conform to WP:RS

Source 2 (forum.worldoftanks.com) and 4 (www.gunboards.com) seam to be just "random forum posts" I don't know enough about the subject matter to fix that. 95.88.183.208 (talk) 06:50, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's fair, though source 2 (forum.worldoftanks.com) may fall under WP:SELFPUB's subject-matter expert provision if it's citing work by Nicholas Moran (the Chieftain), who I think qualifies as a historian. I don't know what specific information from there is being cited. The other link, I have no idea. – Anon423 (talk) 09:34, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
