Kerrison Predictor

[George Moore]

The book I saw was the illustrated parts list, it had each component broken down as sub asemblies. No dimensions though.
I was running out of time, they had kindly allowed me access on a day they were closed. Luckily there was some work going on, so I was allowed in.

I should have noted the details, but if you have anything that gives a drawing of the predictor, plus associated connections to the gun, it would be of use, if you're willing to share?

I cannot say if the predictor is the same as used by the Bofors.

The manual has a drawing of the predictor, plus a detailed description of the connections, plus CES.

Have PM'd you.

The Pucka Tank Museum rescued this earlier this week. I post photos with permission and I can't get any more as it has been handed over to the Arty Museum.



It is a predictor used as a training aid. What you see is what is there.







Most of the components are seized but would be easy enough free up. However it is off to where it should be hope to see it again on display when the Arty Museum re-opens.

Cheers Easo

Sorry Tim,
Too detailed for my purposes, I work in smaller scales [1/35th]. Just GA drawings of the main body are usually what I am after.

Thanks and if you want to visit,,,,,,Ply 227400.

Alas, my manual is aimed at repairing the predictor, so I have internal mechanism drawings and instructions for assembly and disassembly - but no drawings of the actual device.

Had assumed you had one in 1:1 scale.

So, think it less likely the manual I have may be of any use.

Will give you a buzz over the weekend.
