Description
This is the control panel for the Terrain Radar Clearance Plane from a tall tail B-52. The B-52 had a unique ability among large bombers of being able to follow the terrain very lowly. This is the panel where that adjustment was made. It is very rare, and very special. The B-52 has been in service with the USAF for over 65 years and it is looking to be the first aircraft to serve for 100 years is the USAF. The B-52 has a cruise speed of over 500 mph and a combat range of almost 9000 miles and it does this while carrying 70,000 pounds of bombs, mines, and missiles. This piece was an important part of the tall tail B-52's early mission capabilities. This isn't something you can find in a surplus store!Examine the photos carefully, as the pictures are of the exact panel I am selling: Note: This is not being represented as an airworthy part.
Note: It will cost me about to ship this - So if you can arrange for local pickup in Toquerville, Utah, I can knock an additional off of the price.
