20 pound Hales Bomb WWI

Interesting and very researchable. The first British aerial bomb of World War One designed by the RNAS (Royal Naval Air Service) early in the war then shared with the RFC in 1915 and used until 1918. This specimen consists of the body and tail section with propeller rotor. Missing tail fins. Also mssing bomb nose piece which could be either a solid cap or fuze screwed into place. Empty and inert, extremely rare.
