for sale British 80's thermal imager

[Mox83]

I have for sale a British MRTI thermal imager, beleived to be from the 80's and possibly used on the FV432 and similar to the ones used with the MILAN launchers.

 

Runs off standard Clansman 24v batteries, I tested it and the electrical parts are working ok and managed to get a signal on my monitor from the video out coax socket. But no clear image as the sensor needs purified air at high pressure to function, but given the condition of everything, I can't see any reason why it shouldn't work properly once the cylinder is refilled.

 

Comes with padded metal shipping/storage case and empty high pressure cylinder. I'm just looking to get back what I paid, £200, but will consider offers. Preferably to collect from Hertfordshire, but I can also take it to the monthly show at Chatham, War and Peace Revival or perhaps the military car boot at Basildon this coming Saturday.
