   2. (Mil.) a mechanism in a bomb, torpedo, rocket, or
      artillery shell, usually having an easily detonated
      explosive charge and activated by the shock of impact,
      which detonates the main explosive charge. Some fuses may
      have timing mechanisms, delaying the explosion for a short
      time, or up to several days after impact. Fuses activated
      by other mechanisms more sophisticated than impact, such
      as proximity or heat, are used in modern weapons such as
      antiaircraft or antimissile missiles.
