Description

A dud is an ammunition round or explosive that fails to fire or detonate, respectively, on time or on command. Poorly designed devices, shoddy worksmanship at the munitions factory, over-complicated fuzes, and small devices, have higher chances of being duds. During the Continuation War 1941-1944, Finns estimated up to 20% to 30% of all Soviet shells would be duds.
