Default Predictor

If anyone is going to, or lives near(ish) to Woolwich, the Firepower Museum at the arsenal has a library.....pre arranged visits are required, contact Paul Evans (paule@firepower.org.uk), or phone 020 8312 7125.

I was researching detail of the 3" 20cwt AA gun used early WW2....in the box file was an IPL for a predictor......the 3" was also coupled to a predictor, some photographs show cables running into the base, and a set of photographs taken of the Egyptian Army show a gun with predictor.

I had a quick look through the IPL, I was more interested (from a modelling point of view) to get the dimension drawings, however there were only two photographs of the overall shape, but pages and pages of bits and pieces.

May be of help, not sure. The photocopying fees are very reasonable, and they always welcome a small donation. Very helpful people too.

Here is one photo of the Egyptian gun with predictor.
