Rootes75 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Any idea of what ship it was used on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REME 245 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Presumably a Mk IX Mount as used in the 1970's - 1980's on many Frigates and Mine sweepers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REME 245 Posted Saturday at 08:01 PM Share Posted Saturday at 08:01 PM (edited) A dealer told me that when the Naval Storage depot at COPENACRE in Wiltshire was closed in the 1990's there were a quantity of these offered for sale. Presumably most were scrapped but this may be a survivor from that batch? Edited Saturday at 08:02 PM by REME 245 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
