Manufactured by Buck KG.
Also produced by PRB in Belgium as the CALID NR 179 red phosphorus.
The round would either shatter on hard contact by kinetic energy alone after travelling at least 8 metres, spreading the incendiary content over a 5 to 8 metre area (in this case the scattering charge does not explode), or if fired into the air over enemy dispositions, the cartridge would be burst by a scattering charge after 1.3 seconds of flight (this represents forward travel of 70–80 m), the scattering charge being ignited by the delay fuse.
When burst in flight, the incendiary material spreads across an area approximately 10 m wide and 15 m long and burns at 1,300 °C.
The incendiary charge will burn for two minutes.
