Mint Boxed Remote Contactor (ins pg3)
A mint boxed Remote contactor
IFF system. Spitfires had these fitted to
the top RHS of the cockpit. The unit transmitted a signal
for 15 secs out of every minute thus identifying this
aircraft as friendly to the radar operators below. This enabled
fighter command controllers to vector Fighters on to the enemy with
two distinct plots.

Hampden Rev Counter (pg3 ins)
One Pair available
The Hampden was the last
of the twin-engine medium bombers to go into service during
the expansion of Bomber Command in the late 1930s and,
together with the Wellington and Whitley, it bore the brunt
of the Royal Air Force's attacks against Germany in the
early years of the Second World War.
Better manoeuvrability and performance than its two
contemporaries led to high expectations, but early war time
operations proved the aircraft had serious deficiencies. Two
particular problems were identified. The very narrow
fuselage provided cramped accommodation for the crew causing
fatigue on long missions. Unlike other British medium
bombers the Hampden had no multi-gun power-operated turrets.
Its fixed forward gun was next to useless and the three
flexible gun mountings in the nose and fuselage had a
limited traverse which produced a number of blind spots.
Modifications were put in hand to provide more guns but the
fuselage design remained a problem throughout its service
life.
After a disastrous, but mercifully short, daylight campaign
Hampden's were switched to night operations until 1942 when
a number were converted to carry a torpedo. Eventually 144
aircraft were modified in this way and the type continued in
service with Coastal Command as a torpedo bomber until
December 1943.

This is the master compass
for the Lancaster bomber. It is an original wartime model
