ferrettkitt Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 The missus takes something very similar to work every day to keep her butties in. It has a little compartment beneath for one of those chiller / cooler bottles that come from the freezer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timinder Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 It says it's a Satchel: Alarm Set - made by Racal according to this link: http://www.nsn-now.com/Indexing/PublicSearch.aspx?QString=47-9000/b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Well it was sold to Canada & Australia as well as UK. I suspect it is part of Alarm Set Anti-Intrusion No.3 W/Relay System (CLASSIC) It entered service with the British Army in 1982 & that fits in with the 1983 date on the bag. CLASSIC = Covert Local Area Sensor System for Intrusion Classification It is covered in the AESP sequence 6350-B-103-101 etc The basic system comprises two units that look like rather older style large hand-held radios. The detector can be fitted with seismic, transducer/pressure, magnetic or IR sensors. The VHF signal transmitted to the receiver has a range of up to 7 km. Up to 8 sensor transmitters can be used with one receiver & the compartmentalised bag looks just the job for carrying a set of these around. These would be a rather heavy load so it is understandable there is such sturdy strapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
