A magnetic proximity fuze is a type of electrical device used in munitions, specifically in shells, missiles, and bombs, to detonate the explosive charge when the weapon approaches a target. Unlike traditional fuzes that rely on impacts or specific timing for detonation, magnetic proximity fuzes utilize magnetic fields to sense the presence of a metallic object, such as a ship, aircraft, or ground vehicle.
