The big number on the bottom of the images is the museum asset number which starts with the year of acquisition, formally now it is 1970.0157 but in those days photos didn't have the first two digits of the year, now they do.
My impression is that this was a very overloaded and cramped vehicle with the system mounted on top and all the technical bits stuffed inside and in the boxes on the sides.
To say overloaded and cumbersome would be accurate. What I did note was not one trace of any kind of CFR and the clear evidence of the Vehicle Registration Number from the UK MOD, 80 BA 52 on the nose and on the data plate.
