fv1609 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) This can be used to make MO 128 function, although that has its own dedicated equipment. This could be used but can have other uses as well. Edited July 27, 2011 by fv1609 Clarification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony B Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 So what was it used for. Anything to do with recuparator recharging on artillery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 Anything to do with recuparator recharging on artillery? Predominantly yes I think Tony. Also pressure testing & was a multi-role piece of kit given its hydraulic capability. There were various later Marks that were larger & used less components susceptible to corrosion.
