Swingfire ‘Gauge’


Tranter

Recommended Posts

This is a ‘gauge’ according to its NSN ( 1430-99-192-7201) & was used on the Swingfire anti tank missile system.  The labels would indicate it was held by V Troop, M Battery, 3 RHA when they were located in Dortmund (West Riding Barracks) sometime around 1977.  I’m not sure yet of its specific use or whether it was a piece of test/calibration equipment used by theIr REME LAD or whether it had an operational purpose in the field.  Are there any ex Swingfire people on here who can enlighten me as to its use/purpose etc?
