    Standard time fuse is still in common use in all types of demolitions fyi. There’s actually a NATO STANAG for it.

        Nope! It’s still used almost everywhere. Commonly used as a backup on demolition setups like a ring-main.

        Not so sure about civilian applications in demolitions or pyrotechnics but most global militaries still use it from what I’ve read.
