They look very much like Daimler ferret drivers side periscope brow pads to me.

So while we are at it, Is "00" the code for USA origin?

[Robin Craig]

They have been identified as Ferret.

Thanks to all

Yes. The NSN numbering system was a modification of the US federal stock number (FSN) system. The addition of the 00 in between the stock class and the part number made a FSN into a NSN.

'99' is the UK...

...and some wag assigned '66' as the country code for Australia.

'99' is UK. The key to this question is the 9ASC mark. This identifies the primary application and could well be Ferret but I cannot confirm that. 9ACR is FV430 family and 9GWRP is Saxon if that helps anyone !

Hi David,
9ASC is definitely the code for Ferret parts.

Funny enough, when I was in AFG Task Force 66 was the Aussie SF.
