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!
Thanks, that is very intresting.

I've been working on the nose gear this week. I've been trying to put gear doors on her. I've almost got the bugs worked out. I will post pics soon. I'm making them mechanical so I don't have to use servos/air and a sequencer to operate them.
