Default RE: KMP OV-10 Bronco (refurb job)

ORIGINAL: Thunderbolt47

Anybody know what this is for?
It was an infa-red strobe light that was designed to confuse some of the earlier generation of hand held SAM's mainly tthe SA-7. ALQ 144 as I recall... We had one rigged on a P-3C during anti-drug patrols in the early 90's as we were afraid that the druggies had gotten their hands on some soviet block hardware....

I have a KMP bronco that I never finished... I have a set of RCS 140's on it.. I was planning on getting around to finishing it this winter but have been too busy with work.. Interesting to see your gear mod.. should work out!
