Any experts? Picked this up today but is still a bit of a mystery. Guessing something to do with the F95 Aerial Reconnaissance Camera but isn't the 4935 from the NSN would mean it is categorised as "Guided Missile Maintenance, Repair & Checkout Specialist Equipment"?

 

Im sure someone must know!

It will be a camera simulator for use when testing the control systems that drive the camera. It's probably under guided missile maintenance because recent (in relative terms, 70mm film is dead) use of the F95 for reconnaissance work would have seen it fitted to RPVs and autonomous drones.

 

It's a good service life considering the F95 was originally fitted to PR Spitfires!
