The transparent front cover dome is most likely sapphire. Must have been very expensive back then (even today).

[@michaelwan4268]

wow, can not imagine the cost to make such thing

[@encompassthyeclipse7278]

No it’s not that expensive to make now, it’s an industrially grown crystal.

[@ascot4000]

I flew ZA402 a number of times but clearly no idea what LRMTS was in it at the time. The aircraft itself was one of the first, if not the first, GR1A recce jets and did see operational service in the first gulf war, flying low-level throughout the conflict and almost exclusively at night. It spent a great deal of time at Warton & Boscombe during its life and tended to have all the latest 'war-going' kit and it also formed part of the GR4/4A aerodynamic elements - principally the FLIR chin mounted to the other side of the nose in a similar fairing to the LRMTS. Amongst other places I flew ZA402 in Alaska, Canada and Norway. I guess it liked the winter weather...

You feature some of the coolest and most unique electronics of any other channels. I hope the algo gives you more exposure so you get the far greater number of views your videos deserve. Thanks for sharing!

[@surikatga]

You probably already know but check out mikeselectricstuff. He also had few interesting, industrial units to tear down.

[@tHaH4x0r]

I also love the mechanical decoupling, with a mechanical lowpass filter with the springs and inertia, plus the 'foam' for damping. I wonder if it is some kind of closed cell foam, or a more fancy kind of damping material.

In 1978, I could not have imagined that such technologies existed

а в 1961г. на каких технологиях человека в космос запустили, а не много позже и на луну высадили?

[@mlentsch]

Wow - it's like this high-tech thing, and then you see all these through-hole components and other archaic things that look like they came out of a Wurlitzer! Awesome!

[@douro20]

I believe FRE is Ferranti Radar Edinburgh. I wonder what type of laser it is? It is most certainly solid-state, and flashlamp pumped. The most common will be ruby and ND:YAG. Diode pumped Er:SiO2 is becoming more common in recent years since its frequency is eye-safe even at very high power levels.

[@hinz1]

Nd-Yag

3:05 看起来 中心小盒子是一个视觉接收器配合里面的折返式镜头。旁边的镜头是激光照射的镜头使用内部两块反射镜对目标进行照射而不影响云台角度伺服。这是个给导弹使用的激光照射引导器。带有陀螺稳定平台。实现滚转全姿态跟随。

[@E-E.ADVENTUREGEARS]

GOOD INFO👍

[@JohnnyMotel99]

For 1982, this was state of the art for compactness, I’d love to know how big a similar unit is today.

[@HappyHarryHardon]

It was made n 1978.

[@trespire]

The only thing that's shrunk since 1978 are the electricals / electronics. Optics are basicaly the same, as are the mechtronical assemblies.

[@Cyrob-org]

Wow ! Fantastic device ! I love it. Bon réveillon !

[@jacobdavidcunningham1440]

I'm looking forward to the day he's like "Alright today we're taking apart an RTG"

[@sergioborghesan6318]

Jennings relays used also in hf ham radio power amplifiers.

[@alexeyl22]

This is pretty interesting. The parts (resistors etc) look like arbitrarily soldered and would not hold well under constant vibrations in flight. I wonder why they did not use epoxy resin or something to fill in the PCBs.

[@BGTech1]

Very nice piece of engineering

[@sgtellioman]

The prisms are neat- I have several from the turret head of the M901 FISTV, a laser designator tank, much larger. They were going to blow them up on the range and I asked If I could take them apart... now the prisms collect dust mostly.

[@msylvain59]

Do you have any radioactivity measuring device, some glass parts might have thorium and be radioactive, in particular that blueish one on the front !

[@lelabodemichel5162]

The blueish lens is probably the IR laser beam output. Several prisms permit to orientate the beam on that direction whatever the orientation of the head is.

[@RoboArc]

1978... damn, the stuff we have now is crazy compared to this and half the size

[@astra_joe]

Podran algún dia en español,grabar estos fenómenos procesos.

[@jamcguire100]

How does this work then? Assuming its timed pulses rather than phase shift how much power does it need to emit in order for it to work from ground reflectometry?

[@jamcguire100]

Does this form part of the platforms ARBS capability?

[@odissey2]

The pulse energy is about 100mJ, probably 10-20Hz pulse rate. The 1.06u reflectivity from the ground ~10%, so it is easy to detect

[@BGTech1]

@@lelabodemichel5162 1:53 they can be seen at the bottom of the screen. They appear to have some kind of tape coving the ends.

[@lelabodemichel5162]

These are the fresh air input and output (less fresh!) of the heat exchanger for cooling the laser. You can see the filter (semi-transparent stuff) for filtering the air before entering the heat exchanger.

[@daniellauck9565]

This is one of those things impossible to reassemble later. There is always a few screws left.

[@raghardeishi972]

Well, they can get a drone and explosive device, and they would have that for fraction of price. People who are paying are fans, for the privilege to disassemble that stuff in their barns.

[@tastenheber]

Usually the issue is less getting it, than actually be able to replicate and use it. But in this case it's probably just to old to be useful for reverse engineering anyway.
