Flare, Signal, German, A-H, 1939, Leuchtpatrone 38

Genuine WWII German signal flare, made of an aluminum tube with color indication.

The effect produced is a white star, shifting toward yellow, igniting at an altitude of 130–160 m and burning for approximately 10–13 seconds, with an intensity of 170,000 candelas. This provides sufficient illumination at night to see within a radius of 250 m, and the signal can be seen in daylight from nearly 4 km away.

Excellent overall condition, dated November 1939 and to be used before Décember 31, 1945.
