do not claim that all items of defence equipment manufactured in
Britain are included or described. Some are too complex to include in this
type of presentation, others of which you may have heard are not yet in
service. If you want further information on any of the items or if you cannot
find the type of equipment for which you are looking, help will be forthcoming from the British Embassy or High Commission if appropriate
in your country.
Alternatively, your representatives in London can seek
further information from the British Ministry of Defence or Ministry of

It should be noted moreover that contributors to this Catalogue have
been able to select only one or, at best, a few of their products for inclusion in the product data sections; other products made by the contributor
are indicated against their name in the alphabetic list.
This edition contains updated and new information, and therefore
supersedes the second edition dated December 1969, all copies of which
should be destroyed. The next (fourth) edition will be published in the
Autumn of 1971, it having been decided that it is now necessary to publish the Catalogue only once a year in future.
This Catalogue has been sponsored by the British Ministries of Defence
and Technology and has been prepared with the fullest assistance and
co-operation of the many firms participating.
Application for further copies of this edition should be addressed to the
publishers: Combined Service Publications Limited, 67 68 Jermyn Street,
London SW1

1970. All are being built by Vosper Thornycroft at Woolston.
The staff requirements called for a ship of about 2500 tons displacement which could contribute effectively to
the defence of a convoy or other force, against surface ship or submarine attack and would moreover be fully
capable of self-defence against aircraft, missiles or fast patrol craft. It had to be capable of matching comparable
contemporary foreign ships in battle and performance. It also had to be able to patrol the high seas in all areas and
in all weather and was required to be able to land armed or unarmed landing partiestodeal with civil disturbance
or natural disaster. Brief details of the design arrived at to meet all these requirements are given below.

Vosper Thornycroft and Yarrow (Shipbuilders) Ltd.
The design has been specifically tailored to the requirements of the Royal Navy. Clearly the sound basic
concept and the detailed requirements of the Royal Navy will produce a fine warship, but it is fully recognised
that other navies may require modifications in detail of both the armament and the equipment. Within the general
space and weight concepts of the ship, there is ample scope to adapt the design to meet the particular requirements of other navies.

The clean
lines of the Yarrow frigate are a promise of its economical performance and speed when required. Faster and more sophisticated than a corvette, smaller and more economical than a first-rate frigate, the Yarrow frigate provides powerful armament and control
systems for general defence. Designed to help developing nations protect their own interests, the Yarrow frigate gives economy in
capital cost, in operating cost and in vital operating manpower at about 60 per cent of the equivalent figures for existing first-rate
frigates
The Yarrow frigate's twin-screw CODOG arrangement of fully automated machinery combines a single diesel engine of good specific
fuel consumption giving high endurance and long-range cruising economy, with a large gas turbine of low specific machinery weight
for high-speed operational performance. Normal cruising performance up to 16 knots is obtained from the Crossley-Pielstick PC2V
engine driving through an automatic SSS synchronising clutch into a single gearbox from which two output shafts drive two controllable
pitch propellers. Running on distillate fuel, life between piston withdrawals will be 12 000h or more. Full control is exercised by
independent change of propeller pitch, through simple lever controls on the bridge. At speeds above 16 knots, the Rolls-Royce
Marine Olympus gas-turbine is started, and drives into the same gearbox through a separate SSS clutch

The role played by the professional diver in underwater operations, both military and civil, has become
increasingly important in recent years both in defence
and in projects involving marine surveys, repairs and
demolitions. The proficient amateur diver, participating
in a novel but increasingly popular sport, is extending
his dives to greater, but more hazardous depths.

to carry divers weights in the front pocket and fittings for flexible supply hoses from the
surface. At the surface the supply hose is connected to a surface control panel supplied
with high-pressure air from the ship's main or portable air compressor (or from a storage
cylinder).
The panel contains arrangements for controlling air pressure to the diver
according to his depth and can support two divers for normal working; in an emergency
can accommodate a third diver.
The SDDE has twin cylinders, each charged to 21 kgf/cm 2 (3000 lbf/in 2 air pressure,
which automatically supply the diver should the surface supply fail. The breathing

Dunlop booster sets are designed to transfer the
maximum amount of gas with minimum loss, by
feeding the compressor via a demand valve. This valve
allows full pressure to be drawn from the supply bottle
into the compressor at the beginning of the compression
cycle.
Full output continues to be obtained until the
pressure in the supply bottles falls to 35 kgf/cm 2
(50 lbf/in 2 ).
No gas is lost during the compression cycle because
the crankcase of the compressor is sealed and the
breathing or piston losses are piped back into the firststage inlet. Wastage is thus practically nil.
Dunlop nitrogen boost sets are available powered by
a 400/440 V, three-phase electric motor.

postacceptance support of the complete system. It also
includes, when necessary, consultation on all ship
construction aspects of installation.
Cost-effective minehunting demands speed, accuracy and a highly reliable mine destruction capability. Accuracy is of particular importance, because the
whole object of minehunting is to provide safe navigation channels with a minimum of delay. This can be
done either by finding and marking areas where no
mines have been laid, or by destroying the mines in a
carefully defined area.
To achieve the necessary very high standards of
navigational accuracy, the mine-hunting sonar is integrated into a specially designed command and navigation sub-system. Important elements of the system are
a pilotage radar, used to take range and bearings of
reference short-scope buoys, and a minefield plot-

A comprehensive range of radars and displays, suitable for a wide variety of naval vessels and applications, provides the high performance and high standards of reliability necessary for the main navigational and
tactical roles. With these radars a range of simple practical attachments provides additional facilities for highspeed navigation, tactical plotting, outputs to weapons systems and precision ranging and control for surveying
and oceanography. Some typical naval radar systems are described below with details of the main items of equipment employed.

The D202 is compact and economical, with low power consumption. Its
high performance and reliability have been proved in service, and over 5000 of
these radars have been ordered for installation in small vessels of every type.

Frigate system
A modern frigate requires a high-definition surface warning system that can be
integrated with the operation room (combat information centre) for tactical
plotting, helicopter control, and co-ordination of forces as well as for providing
the out-station navigational display for the bridge.
The Naval JUA display system associated with the Decca Transar and 978
radars has been developed to meet these requirements and has been evolved
to meet the varying requirements of anti-submarine operations, manoeuvring
and pilotage and other radar facilities to support the general-purpose frigate
such as the Leander Class.

Designed for application in hydrography, dredging,
salvage and similar works, this equipment transmits a
fan-shaped beam from a fixed transducer. The beam is
narrow in the horizontal plane and is directed to one side
of the vessel's track. As the ship advances, successive
echos are recorded and accumulate to form an acoustic
plan of the seabed showing rock outcrops, sand
waves, wrecks, other objects, changes in seabed
material and texture. Two range scales are available:
0-275 m (0-300 yd) and 0-550 m (0-600 yd).

any sonar is determined by many
factors including transmitted power, receiver sensitivity,
interference levels and transmission losses. The first
two of these factors are under the full control of the
designer and, in the case of MS26 and MS27, are

levels and transmission losses depend partly on the

Sonar has proved a most effective means of submarine location, while helicopters, with their outstanding manoeuvrability, are in many respects ideal
platforms for anti-submarine warfare. The combination
of the two, in the form of the Plessey Type 195
'dunking' sonar shown on the opposite page, has
already proved highly successful in many trials under
battle conditions.
Trace Indicator
(ARTI) has been developed by the Marine Systems
Division for the Royal Navy to apply automatically
corrections due to such effects. The equipment, which
provides rapid corrections to the
is very compact,
detection range of any sonar by using temperature/
depth or velocity/depth profiles derived from suitable
detectors. The indicated correction enables targets to
be located with greatly improved accuracy.
ARTI can accept input data from any temperature or
velocity-profile source, but is specifically designed to
accept plots automatically from either the Royal
Navy sound velocity recorder, or from the PlesseySippican expendable bathythermograph which is described in detail elsewhere in this Catalogue. The
bathythermograph is already in service with ten navies.
The ARTI incorporates an analogue computer which
integrates the sonar plot with the temperature/depth

The Deltic engine was designed specifically for use by the Royal
Navy and, although unique in the triangular arrangement of

Acoustic cladding
Special acoustic cladding has been developed to reduce diese
noise. It is arranged in easily removable panels. As regards heat
insulation, it is assumed that 2 percent of the total heat energy
available from consumed fuel in a liquid-cooled engine can be
accounted for in radiation. Although the acoustic cladding is
not a complete insulator, it can be expected that a total increase in
cooling capacity of approximately 5 percent would be required
and it is suggested that the normally fitted coolers (with excess
capacity in the order of 10-15 percent) would accommodate this
increase.
This cladding method can also be applied to other
diesel engines.

a powerful and unique type of propulsion for more substantial craft such as tugs,
dredgers, floating cranes and heavy barges. A safety device in the form of a friction slip-gear permits the
stem and tail assembly to swing back if underwater obstructions are encountered. The entire unit can be mounted
on any craft by simply clamping down the four base lugs to the deck. The units are of robust design, reliable
under the most arduous conditions, and are supported by a first-class spares service.

fin systems can easily be designed to achieve a 5
capacity and all Vosper stabilising equipments are so designed.
Thus, except in the most violent weather, the stabilising system
can compete with the external forces tending to roll the ship and
the roll is damped to its normal residual value which is of the order
of 3
Active fin systems are controlled by signals generated by a
gyro unit which is sensitive to the ship's rolling velocity or
angular movement. In the more sophisticated systems for larger
ships, a composite signal may be used. This is generated from a
combination of the ship's angle of heel, roll velocity and roll
acceleration.
In either case, the sensitivity of the gyro and the
characteristics of the hydraulic system are matched so that the
fins provide an almost instantaneous correction at any rolling
moment induced in the ship.

The commander's station incorporates a 7-62mm machine gun, all-round vision, a sight which allows accurate
indication of targets to the gunner, and a lifting hatch giving direct vision with overhead protection.
Both the main and auxiliary engines are of the multi-fuel compression ignition type specially developed forthis
vehicle. An increased radius of action much in excess of that obtained with spark-ignition engines is achieved.
Salient features
Since the introduction of the Centurion tank at the
end of World War II, much research and development
has been directed to providing a tank with greater
fire power, better protection and a larger radius of
action, while at the same time embodying new requirements arising from lessons learnt in World War II as

(2-5mph).
High-explosive squash-head (HESH): anti-tank, effective against medium tanks and light armoured fighting
vehicles at all ranges when a hit is obtained. It can
demolish concrete, earthworks, buildings and field
defences. Its lethality against troops in the open is
close to that of orthodox high-explosive shells.
High-explosive: good fragmentary attack up to 5000m.

Fox
armoured car
one of a new family of armoured vehicles and a
development of the well-proven Ferret, is
designed to meet the need for a lightweight armoured
reconnaissance vehicle of compact proportions capable
of undertaking a wide variety of roles, including some
which previously required larger and heavier vehicles.
Apart from armed reconnaissance, the extremely
versatile Fox can be adapted for liaison use with the
infantry, artillery, engineers and other branches of the
armed forces. In its main role, Fox can be equipped with
a 30 mm cannon, a 7-62 mm general-purpose machine
gun, smoke dischargers, three 9 mm sub-machine guns,
hand grenades and comprehensive sighting and vision
instrurmnts. Fox is extremely manoeuvrable and, with
its exceptionally high power/weight ratio, has excellent

The Type A32(M) AA weapon system offers lightweight and effective mobile defence of mobile columns,
airfields and other static targets against attack by low-flying aircraft and tactical missiles.
Local protection of the gunner is provided by the use of a fully armoured shield, and working voltages can be
modified to suit customers' specific requirements. This mounting is a development from the highly successful
naval mounting Type A32, a complete specification of which can be found elsewhere in this Catalogue.

flexibility and the multiple characteristic of the A32 mounting are further enhanced by the availability of an
extensive range of ammunition. HS 831 L ammunition is designed specifically for the Hispano Suiza 30
cannon but has also been selected by the British Ministry of Defence as the basis of Rarden gun design,
described elsewhere in this Catalogue.

feeding and breech mechanism is nevertheless excellent. The top part of the casing can be removed completely in seconds without tools, conveniently carrying
with it all the feed mechanism for maintenance and
inspection.
The breech mechanism is then fully
revealed and the recoil system can be examined. A
jammed round can be cleared by lifting open the top
and reaching inside the casing.
As the whole mechanism is enclosed, there is no
difficulty in operating in dirty and wet conditions.
Ammunition
To achieve the outstanding performance of the Rarden 30 against armour an armour-piercing discarding sabot
(APDS) round has been developed by the Royal Armament Research and Development Establishment.
For other roles standard Hispano Suiza 831 L ammunition is available. The gun was deliberately designed to
take this existing family to ensure that quick development of the system was not delayed by any problems of
ammunition development.
For the Rarden 30, although all HS 831 L rounds can be fired, tracered ammunition is considered essential,
to enable the aim of each round to be corrected.

A conveyor arm above the tow bar accepts bar
mines loaded from the armoured towing vehicle,
without exposing personnel to enemy fire. The conveyor
is
adjustable in height to adapt it to any towing
vehicle. It feeds the mines to an adjustable spacing
mechanism, which deposits them in a trench of adjustable depth made by the plough. Two harrow discs then
close the trench; a dragged chain may be used to
smooth the surface. The plough and harrow can also
be raised to allow the mines to be laid on the surface.
All wearing parts, such as the plough point, are
quickly and simply replaced. The machine can be used
on any type of soil capable of being ploughed.
Cage wheels can be quickly fitted to the two hubs to
provide extra stability on soft or uneven ground at high
travelling speeds.
The plough is capable of laying buried mines at the
rate of 600-700 mines per hour and at even higher
rates on the surface.

The new bar mine has a tough plastics casing housing
the explosive charge and the fuze, which contains only
very few small metal parts. The mine cannot be detected
by any current electro-magnetic mine detector.
Extensive trials have shown that this mine is
completely effective against any tank track and causes
severe damage to tank belly armour
The fuze is fitted before operational use and is armed
immediately prior to loading; the mine can thus be
handled, transported and stored in safety.
Because of its shape, 72 bar mines are combined
into a unit load of approximately one cubic metre

poor.
Advantages
These land navigation systems accurately and continuously compute and display the geographical location of the vehicle and the direction in which it is
headed. The presentation is designed to let the commander use the information immediately without need
for any manual plotting or calculating.
The LNS makes it possible for crews of tanks and any
other vehicles to navigate across unknown country
quickly and easily even when features on the ground
cannot be seen, as for instance in darkness, fog or
smoke or when hatch covers must be kept closed. It
also enables vehicles to navigate accurately in country
devoid of landmarks, where reliable maps are not
available or in areas lacking permanent topographical
features.
Method of operation
The continuous computation and display
of the present
position of the vehicle is obtained by automatic deadreckoning from a known starting point. The distance
travelled by the vehicle is measured by the odometer
drive, while the direction of travel of the vehicle is
derived electrically from either a gyro compass or a
magnetic heading transmitter.
Prior to moving off, the starting point co-ordinates,
obtained from a standard military map grid, are set
into the appropriate units. Any subsequent movement
of the vehicle is continuously followed and displayed.

The problem
All soldiers know the difficulty of aiming at night, or
when there is not enough light to line their sights with
the target.
Unless his sights are illuminated the firer must rely
on rough weapon alignment with only a small chance
of hitting the enemy.
Illuminated sights are therefore essential, but while
being easily seen by the firer they must not be so bright,
or so positioned, that they interfere with his view of the
target under difficult night conditions.
The solution
The
Ease of use
The technique
of firing
is
in a
matter of 10 minutes.
Effectiveness
World-wide trials by the British Army show that, under light conditions where a man-sized standing target can
just be seen between 20 and 50 metres, the average firer will score 70 per cent hits.
Using Trilux night sights a soldier can effectively engage all targets out to the furthest distance at which he
can see them:
From 15 metres dark night and background.
To 300 metres light night and background.
Apart from its night-firing advantage the Trilux night sight increases accuracy
in 'quickfire' engagements.

maintains the viewed horizon correctly orientated
throughout the yaw motions of the sightline. Since the
mirror is electrically controlled, a variety of tracking
control configuration and positions is available.
The bi-ocular eye-pieces remain in a forwardlooking direction at all times. In both axes, azimuth
and elevation, the rate at which the mirror scans is
related to the movement made of the tracking control
handle. The scan rate is thus directly controlled by the
operator. The servo-driven rotating head on the top
of the sight protects the top mirror from buffeting by
external forces and ensures that an optically acceptable
window is provided at the correct angle to receive the
top mirror image. The window is fitted with an electrically driven wiper with washing and de-misting facilities.

The simulated missile flight is represented by a light spot

Application
Class 30 Trackway
Application
The Class 60 heavy-duty Trackway is designed for both tracked
and wheeled vehicles. In general it is used to support tanks over
very soft ground and in areas of large vehicle concentrations such
as may occur at bridge and ferry approaches, at the entry and
exit to marshalling areas and other areas subject to heavy traffic.
Class 60 Trackway is also used to protect Class 30 Trackway
Assembly
Class 30 Trackway is assembled from a number of extruded
aluminium alloy planks with interlocking captive tongue-andgroove joints, forming a continuous non-skid surface 335 m
(11ft) wide and normally 49-95 m (150 ft 9 in) long.
This
standard Trackway length is reeled on to a carriage assembly
transported by normal platform trucks.
Class 30 Trackway is
launched from the truck and later recovered on to the truck.
The spool carrying the length of track is mounted on a frame
and turntable assembly which clamps to the truck platform. This
arrangement permits the equipment to be stowed within the
vehicle dimensions or swung to the launching and recovery
positions.
Launching
Class 30 Trackway is launched forward over the truck cab,
using a quickly fitted removable roller frame launching assembly.
The track may also be launched over the rear of the truck. The
preparation and launching operation can be completed in about
ten minutes by a three-man team.

38 ft).
Comfor assembling a roadway 15-3 m (50 ft) in length and
(15 ft) wide can be loaded on one 3-ton truck as loose
planks or as a single pre-assembled roll or as two pre-assembled
rolls each 7-65 m (25 ft) long.

Recovery
Class 30 Trackway is recovered over the rear of the vehicle,
being rewound on to the spool by ratchet levers. Roller supports
clamped to the rear of the truck platform support the track clear
of the truck. The recovery operation can normally be completed
in 10 to 1 5 minutes by a four-man team.

In addition to their mechanically driven units, T t
Boughton has pioneered and developed a range of
hydrostatic winches, actuated by hydraulic motors.
This group of seven models is also suited to vehicles,
wheeled and crawler tractors or to special applications.
Capacities range from 2720kg (60001b) to 27 210kg
(60 0001b) line pull and varying line speeds.
Apart from the smooth shockless functioning so
characteristic of hydraulic power, hydrostatic winches
permit many more permutations and combinations
than the mechanical types. Not only can a range of
optional gear ratios be used between the motor and the
winch drum, but pumps providing different flow rates
may influence line speed, while variations in hydraulic
pressure can increase or diminish line pull.

Air

mounted plants.
The patented Duplex airflow-cooled, two-stage
design embodied in all Bristol air compressors enables
the machines to deliver a greater volume of usable air
power. This design uses a stepped
piston and cylinder to enable both stages of compression to be carried out in any one cylinder.
Efficient
airflow cooling of the high-pressure area of the cylinder,
together with inter-cooling carried out between stages,
results in very cool-running compressors with high

volumetric efficiency.
In addition, the double-acting piston does an equal
amount of work on each stroke and plants run relatively
free from vibration while the short stroke inherent in
this design gives low piston speeds with consequent
reduction in wear.
Bristol Duplex air compressors, large numbers of
which are serving with the armed forces of British and
other NATO countries, have undergone the most
stringent tests.
These include subjecting the plants
to ambient temperatures ranging from 52 C to -40 C
with no detrimental effect to performance.
Free air delivery figures are quoted for every Bristol
air compressor and are guaranteed to the relevant

This recovery vehicle has an AEC Militant
1 0-ton chassis and is fitted with a Renolds
Boughton hydraulically operated crane
with a manual jib extension mounted on
a ballbearing slewing ring giving an angle
of slew of 180.
Hydraulic luffing is
carried out by the Boughton B19H winch
which is fitted with an automatic brake.
Hydraulic power is generated by a pump
driven from a single-speed power take off
which is supplied with the chassis.
The crane's main frame and structure is
fabricated from standard road steel sections
electrically welded.
A load indicator is
fitted to the main jib and suitably marked
showing safe loads. The crane can lift

Land Rover
lightweight air-portable model
new half-ton 223cm (88in) wheelbase Land
Rover has been designed and developed in conjunction
with the British Fighting Vehicles Research and
Development Establishment (FVRDE) to meet the
special air-portability requirements of the British Army,
RAF and Royal Marines. Over a period it will succeed
the normal 88-in Land Rover vehicle which is at
present the standard light 4
4 in its load class in all
British Forces.
The main feature of the new halfton Land Rover is that any or all of the hood, body
sides, doors, windscreen, bumpers and spare wheel
may be removed more easily for transportation by aircraft or helicopter than from current models, resulting
in an austere but highly robust and serviceable vehicle
weighing little over a ton. In its built-up form it offers
the same degree of comfort and weather protection
as existing models. The half-ton is available in both
'12-volt cargo' and '24-volt fitted for radio' (FFR)

The above sketches illustrate the design concept of the 5MS connector series: The basic components are a fixed unit (A), a free unit
(B) and a coupler unit (C). If sealing is required on the back of a fixed unit (A), a grommet assembly is used, comprising a grommet,
follower and nut (D). to combine into the unit shown at (E). For units requiring a right-angled outlet, an angled outlet set is available
comprising an outlet, grommet and follower (F). This results in a fixed angle outlet (G) or in a free angle outlet (H). The outlet with
its integral nut is fitted in place of the grommet nut, which then fits on the end of the outlet. Should additional support be required for
the cables or any assembly, the grommet nut can be replaced by a grommet cable clamp nut (J)

Alternator, type
AC140
CAV AC140 alternator has been designed to supply high electrical outputs. It fully
meets specification FV2051
The alternator produces a self-limited maximum output of 140 A at a nominal 24 V
at an ambient temperature of 80 C and can operate in an ambient temperature range
from -40 C to 80 C, but up to 140 C with forced ventilation, ventilating air being
drawn through ducts at an inlet temperature of 60 C. The stator laminations have been
cast in position to obtain high thermal efficiency. The insulation in the stator has been
designed to withstand high temperatures.
The output from the stator is rectified by the main six silicon diodes mounted in the
slip ring end shield. Three additional diodes in conjunction with three of the main diodes
provide a rectified auxiliary dc supply for field excitation. Full-load excitation is provided
at approximately 2 A field current.
The alternator can be driven in either direction by a shaft or belt. Drive ratio depends
on the installation but can usefully be fixed somewhere between 2:1 and 3:1

Multi-fuel injection
<i
pump, type NN
This pump, representative of the CAV range of fuel injection pumps, is for use on sixcylinder multi-fuel engines of 1 2 litres capacity. As with all CAV injection pumps, this
unit has several design features which make it particularly suitable for military applications.
The pump is a totally enclosed and wadable, camshaft type which incorporates its
own tappet gear. Lubrication is by engine oil contained in a sump in the base of the
pump. The pressure oil from the engine is also used to provide a high-efficiency oil seal
on the pump elements to prevent any mixing of fuel and lubricating oil. Accurate governing is provided by a CAV all-speed hydraulic governor with its own lubricating oil supply.

is a fuel feed pump for multi-fuel engines where the possible use of volatile fuels
needs higher pressures than those of the ordinary mechanically driven feed pump.
Electrically driven by a 24 V dc motor the PPE can be driven when the engine is stationary to purge the fuel system of accumulated gas. This positive displacement-type
pump can deliver 1 36 litres per hour at 1 76 kgf cnv and is flange-mounted in the fuel
tank. The integral electric motor mounted outside the tank is completely enclosed and
is completely sealed against dust and water.
It operates in ambient temperatures from
-40 C to 108 C and can pump fuel with a temperature ranging from -40 C to 83 C.

Volute casing
The volute casing and integral inlet duct are formed from 18 swg
(1 22 mm) mild steel which is hot-solder-dipped after fabrication.
The fabrication is mounted to the engine fan-drive gearbox by a
studded anular flange, and seals at the mouth to the radiator case.
A fan draws air from the engine compartment and discharges it
through the radiator.
Wound around the fan inlet duct, the
volute expands both radially and axially, finally fairing into the
radiator case. This design enables the high-performance backward-curved aerofoil centrifugal fans to be used effectively in
the confined available space, with a large percentage of the total
fan pressure rise across the radiator.

This role requires flexibility of operation over a series of missions,
ground attack, interdiction, armed reconnaissance, etc. and thus
a high degree of interchangeability between range and payload.

Avionics
As the environment in which tactical aeroplanes must operate
becomes progressively more severe in terms of sophistication of
ground defences, so it becomes increasingly necessary to ensure
that none of the time spent at risk is wasted. Thus navigation and
weapon delivery must both be upgraded. This in turn results in a
greater dependence on avionics, and in an aeroplane which has

The Olympus was the first British turbojet engine of the two-spool
layout, which gives extreme flexibility and hence excellent
handling characteristics. The engine first ran in 1950 and the
Mk 101 of 4990 kg (11 000 lb) thrust entered service in the
Avro Vulcan in 1956, followed by the Mk 201 in 1960 and the
Mk301 in 1963. Morethan a million hours have been accumulated
in service with the Vulcan. The latest supersonic versions of the
Olympus are suitable for operation at speeds up to Mach 205 at
ISA conditions. Olympus engines equipped with fully variable
reheat have completed a considerable amount of running at
static thrusts of the order of 1 7 240 kg (38 000 lb). The Olympus
has also been developed for industrial and marine purposes
Bristol Engine Division of Rolls-Royce undertakes the design and manufacture of a range of gas turbine
engines and ramjets. Among its major products are the Pegasus vectored-thrust turbofan and the M 45 turbofan
(in collaboration with SNECMA of France). Well-established turbojets range from the Olympus family (of which
the commercial Olympus 593 powers the Concorde supersonic airliner) to the much smaller Vipers. The division
will also be responsible for the British share of the work on the RB 199 three-shaft turbofan for the European
multi-role combat aircraft (MRCA). For more than twenty years the division has also been developing a series
of ramjets.

The armour-piercing rocket head weighing 1 -245 kg (275 lb) consists of a core of
tungsten carbide around which is moulded a body of resin and aluminium powder
which has a high penetration capacity. The target effectiveness in terms of hole and
fragment damage is comparable with that of some shaped charges of larger diameter
This head, designed for maximum blast and fragmentation effect, is a cylindrical light
alloy case filled with high-explosive, detonated by a fuze No 942 screwed into its nose.
The fuze incorporates a delay arming device to ensure that the rocket is at least 1 20 m
(400 ft) from the aircraft before it is armed. The weight of the complete head is 1 475 kg
(3
25
lb)
Using the same light alloy case as the high-explosive head, the practice head is filled with
an inert compound and has a nose plug to represent the fuze, the complete head weighing
1 475 kg
exactly the same as the high-explosive head shown above.
(3 25 lb)
Attachment, as with all the rocket heads, is effected by a threaded spigot at the base of
the heads
is
longer than
shown
here;
The rocket motor shown at the left comprises four main components: the
motor tube, the propellant charge, the igniter and the fin-venturi unit.
A feature of the motor is the small ignition delay over the working
temperature range, an essential feature
when
selected.
A propellant charge, occupying most of the steel motor tube, has a starshaped hole through its entire length to permit a constant burning surface;
its outer surface is inhibited by an ethyl-cellulose coating. Also the composition of the propellant is so designed that any variation in burning
time in different temperature conditions is minimised.
The igniter, placed immediately on the front end of the propellant
charge, combines a 'radhaz' filter for protection against premature ignition
by high-power radio and radar transmission. An obturator and a spacer
ripple firing
is
placed over the igniter completes the assembly which is locked in the tube
by a shell ring, sealed to prevent the escape of gas. The shell ring is
threaded to accept the rocket head.
The steel fin-venturi unit is screwed into the rear of the motor tube.
Rectangular fins are provided on a collar at the rear of the unit and are
normally restrained in the closed position by a strap until the rocket is
loaded. When launched, the fins are opened about 1 metre in front of the
launcher by springs and are then locked in the extended position.
An end cap, crimped to the venturi of the rocket, provides a seal for the
motor and the radhaz' protection disc. The end cap acts as a retention
device for the rocket when loaded into a launcher. It also carries a firing
socket which connects with a filter and the igniter.

for air-to-air
Since 1943 Ferranti has manufactured over 45 000 gyro gunsighting systems, and this experience has led to
the development of Ferranti ISIS (Integrated Strike and Interceptor Systems). This is a range of compact optical
sighting systems which covers the operational requirements of most ground-attack aircraft.
The philosophy of ISIS is to have a choice of sighting heads to meet the space requirements of various cockpits,
but using virtually the same weapon aiming computation required for air-to-air interception and air-to-ground
attacks with guns, rockets or bombs.

Laser ranger
and marked target seeker
Ferranti's expertise in weapon aiming equipments
provides the foundation for the Laser ranger and
marked target seeker. The system provides an aircrew
and airborne weapon-aiming systems with complete
data on range and direction to a target during ground
attack; it also has an air-to-air ranging mode.
Range to the target is one of the most important
data requirements in an airborne weapon system. The
Laser ranger combines the narrow beamwidth and
short pulse features of a laser with gyro stabilisation
to provide an equipment which is more accurate and
has a faster response than any other means of deriving
range. The equipment may be used solely as a rangefinder.
However, a marked target seeker has been
incorporated with little extra complexity to the basic
ranger. This combined highly compact system, used in
conjunction with a laser target marker aimed by a
forward

Artificial horizon
Type FH.14 and horizon gyro Type FH.15 are self-contained, electrically operated
gyros operating from a 1 1 5V, 400Hz, single-phase or 3-phase supply.
The artificial horizon FH.1 4 provides information of the movements of an aircraft, in pitch and roll, by means of a
spherical presentation. The horizon gyro FH.15, which is otherwise identical with the FH.14, differs only in that,
in addition, it is equipped with toroidal potentiometers on the pitch and roll axes.
Aircraft attitude is displayed by the position of a two-colour spherically shaped drum relative to a fixed symbol
in the centre of the instrument glass. The division of the colours
blue sky/black ground
extending across the
face of the instrument represents the true horizon. The drum carries a perspective display in the 'ground area' in
one design, the length of the pitch reference lines increasing with pitch angle. Thus, at extreme pitch attitudes,
when the horizon reference line may be out of sight, the pitch reference lines define the roll plane. A roll indicator
is incorporated in either the top or bottom half of the presentation.
Electrical means are used to erect, and maintain erect, the gyroscope to the vertical. The pitch-bank system
of monitoring during turns is incorporated. Arrangements are also made whereby the operation of an external
push switch increases the erection rate to approximately 30 times its normal value. Operation of this switch in
unaccelerated flight erects the gyro rapidly to the vertical position from any attitude.
The instruments are fitted with a combined power failure/gimbal centring device, and have provision for integral

a second-generation air-to-air guided weapon,
developed out of the experience gained with Firestreak, and
incorporating many of the scientific improvements in missile
technology which came about during Firestreak development.
Red Top is capable of all-round' attack and has enhanced
altitude, speed, and range capabilities.
The basic design concept of Firestreak has been proved
sound by rigorous testing and extensive trials under service
conditions. Red Top, therefore, retains the configuration of four
fixed wings and four moving rear control surfaces, with the
design being further optimised to give operation over a very wide
altitude and speed range. The infra-red guidance system has been
further developed to allow target interception from virtually any

capabilities of modern submarines are continually increasing. To meet this threat, surface
ships must have long-range detection equipment linked to a
weapon system capable of quick reaction and able to hit the
enemy at long range before he can make his attack.
To be effective, the system must be capable of day and night
operation, regardless of the weather conditions, and possess high
reliability with the minimum of maintenance. To meet these exacting requirements the Australian Department of Supply and Department of the Navy have designed and developed the Ikara longrange anti-submarine weapon system.
This highly effective system is already at sea in ships of the
Royal Australian Navy, and further units of the Australian fleet
are being fitted with it.
In addition Ikara will shortly enter service in the Royal Navy in
HMS Bristol, and selected frigates will be retro-fitted with the
system modified to meet the special requirements of the Royal
Navy.

In addition, an Ikara attack can be carried out on
information received from another ship, or a helicopter equipped
with dunking sonar. In this case target information is passed to
the firing ship's computer, and an attack is carried out in the
normal manner, even though the firing ship itself is not in contact
with the target.
This mode of operating has been successfully proved in trials
and considerably enhances the potential of Ikara.

environment.
The transmitter has been designed to provide low
operational cost, high reliability and flexibility for
system planning. It is suitable for multi-mode operation,
and the overall bandwidth of
6 kHz permits multichannel speech and telegraph transmissions. Frequency
changes are accomplished in less than 30 seconds.
Completely automatic tuning facilities, coupled with a
high degree of reliability, render the equipment
eminently suitable for operation by unskilled personnel,
and provision is made within the transmitter for the
inclusion of full remote control. With the exception of
the final stage, solid-state techniques are used.
The PVT650 transmitter comprises a PV652 drive
unit, a PV651 linear amplifier and an optional PV653
remote-control system. The transmitter can be operated
either locally, with extended control up to 200 m
(630 ft), or remotely using a single telephone channel
via a
cable or radio circuit.
Spare capacity is
provided for the control of ancillary equipment.
The PV652 drive unit can be mounted with the

This self-contained solid-state unit operates in conjunction with the Decca
Navigator system to provide highly accurate radio position fixing of vessels of
all types and classes. It provides for all 63 Decca main chain frequencies plus an
additional setting for special applications. It employs the multipulse technique
for accurate lane identification even at ranges beyond the present Ministry of
Transport approved limit of 445 km (240 nm). The equipment includes replaceable plug-in circuit boards, combined Decometer and Lane Identification display
and an in-line digital readout giving the lane value to the nearest tenth. A range
of built-in power units permits operation from 12, 24, 32, 110 and 220 V dc
and from 80-260 V ac at 40-400 Hz. Power consumption is minimal.
Designed for use by infantry, Minidec brings ground troops into the same navigational grid as their supporting aircraft. This self-contained robust receiver
operates up to 480 km (300 miles) from the master station.

SELECTION
CONSOLE
TYPICAL COMMUNICATIONS
This photograph shows a typical layout for the system control console. The console and
its associated apparatus racks enable the selection of any audio or dc circuit at line or
internal levels. The dc circuits may be selected automatically by keyswitches on the
console. The line chosen may then be connected, dependent on the type of information
it carries, to one or more of the following test instruments: telegraph distortion measuring
set, telegraph distortion unit, tone monitoring amplifier, dc voltmeter.
The telegraph distortion measuring set and the telegraph distortion unit are used
together to analyse dc telegraph signals. The distortion level is measured with the
TDMS, while the TDU assists in locating the cause of distortion. The voltmeter is used
to check line voltages on dc telegraph circuits.
The tone monitoring amplifier enables audio circuits to be monitored and is connected
manually at the line or internal jackfields.
Supply and fuse facilities in the equipment are monitored by a relay set, and lamp
indication is given on the left-hand side of the central part of the console. An alarm
bell is fitted inside the console to enable aural indication to be given of any failure.
In this particular system monitoring teleprinters and channel switching units have
been incorporated at either end of the main console.

Control systems
for large
communications centres
Force commanders with adequately planned and equipped radio communications systems can only issue
information and orders with the certainty that forces will react to them if the communications links are
effective.
Even with the most modern radio systems, man has not completely overcome the effects of
variations in the ionosphere, nor can any defence communications system operate on the assumption that
no link in the network can fail.
National defence arms now adopt the concept of a communications control system to detect and diagnose any
abnormality in the communications system and to provide the means to restore full facilities, usually by rerouting or bringing reserve equipment into service.
International Aeradio Limited, using operational and technical expertise gained in providing communications
requirements for the world's airlines over nearly a quarter of a century, has been concerned with the design,
development and production of such communications control systems for the British Navy, Army and Royal Air
Force over the last decade.
Specification
General
Each communications station utilises radio transmitters and
receivers which themselves act as bearers for modulated signals.
These comprise a number of voice channels and a larger number
of telegraph channels, all of which may be processed by
cryptographic means prior to transmission and after reception to
minimise their use by an intercepting agency. The control system
comprises units which enable the technical operators to locate
abnormalities and to take remedial action.
All incoming paths from the receiver station to the control
centre and all outgoing paths to the transmitter station from the
control centre, as well as the alternative routes between the
centre, the receiver and transmitter sites, are routed via U-link
panels in line-patching jackfields.
All lines from telegraphy machinery, or associated cryptographic machinery, and all lines to terminal equipment are
routed via jack panels in channel-patching jackfields.
Between the control centre and the local transmitter and
receiver sites, an internal liaison system of telegraphic communication is provided.

Space lower down can be utilised by a cord shelf fitted with
12 double-ended fully retractable cords. Loose patch cords can
be provided if preferred.
Under normal operating conditions the face of the jackfield is
clear of jack cords and only under fault conditions would patch
cords be used for patching out faulty terminal equipment or outgoing lines.

is established by surrounding
the required reception area with a loop of cable
(single-core), and connecting the cable to the output
terminals of the transmitting amplifier. Also connected
to this amplifier are the relevant microphone and
battery. Signals from the microphone are amplified and
matched to the loop, thus causing alternating currents
at low voltage to flow through the loop.
The entire
area within the loop is filled with a low-level alternating
magnetic field which follows the signals coming from
the microphone in amplitude and frequency.

low
multicoupler system gives a full capability for highintermodulation working of several transmitters or
receivers into a common antenna. Considerable development has enabled
the intermodulation products to be accurately controlled and maintained
throughout the life of the system, which in the context of military applications would play a vital role under conditions- of emergency operation.
Two versions of the system are available. The simpler system is manually
tuned for each channel frequency with the settings indicated on a frequency
scale. The more sophisticated version is fully autotune; it has a memory
store and is capable of being programmed anywhere within the 225-400
MHz band.
Specially designed filters are incorporated in the equipment. The filters

Miniature recorder
Airborne tape cassette record/replay equipment
Type 1200 voice recorder
the Type 1200 voice recorder/
reproducer expressly for mounting in the cockpit of
the Harrier, but it is now also installed in the Buccaneer
and Jaguar, and other advanced military aricraft.
This recorder has been so miniaturised that the
complete recorder fits into the space previously
occupied by the recorder control panel. It is hardmounted in the cockpit within easy reach of the pilot
or other crew member, who can change the cassette
in flight if necessary.
When connected to the aircraft central communications system, it provides facilities for recording and
replaying intelligible speech under the most severe
environmental conditions envisaged for fighter-reconnaissance aircraft. The ability to replay in the air
enables the aircrew to edit the recording, replay air
traffic instructions, and listen to instructions previously
recorded on the ground, such as sealed flight directions
and check lists. It is also possible to transmit a recording
from the aircraft by replaying the record with the R/T
transmit button pressed.
All controls are mounted on the small top panel and
consist of a joystick for 'On', 'Off, 'Rewind' and 'Fast
Forward' and a separate switch for 'Record/Replay'.

trainers?
Real exercises cannot be staged very frequently. They are expensive and require a massive effort in planning and
organisation. It is sometimes impossible to provide air, surface and subsurface forces of the required type or
number, and the presence of unwelcome observers at every big exercise precludes realistic training in aspects
such as electronic warfare. For these and other reasons there is a requirement for shore trainers which enable
exercises and tactical investigations to be carried out, particularly in those areas which present special difficulties
in real exercises. Finally, trainers can provide facilities for immediate post exercise analysis, so that lessons can be
appreciated while the experience is still fresh.
Why
digital?
each of these types of trainer the system must be based on a versatile, and often powerful, computing system.
the past analogue machines have been used, but systems based on analogue computing power require a unique
channel for each track and in a practical system this can vary from 1 5 to 150 channels. Analogue systems are
therefore expensive and, since each channel requires extensive re-adjustment in changing from exercise to exercise,
they are time-consuming to set up. They also present a formidable maintenance load. Ferranti trainers are therefore
based on advanced microminiature digital computers and associated equipment taken from the standard Ferranti
range.

controls the whole operation from the time the target
is deployed until it is retracted into the launcher.
Pay-out and wind-in speeds of up to 1 050m (3500ft)
per minute are achieved. The standard winch drum can
hold enough cable for towing the target at distances of
up to 18 200m (60 000ft) or about 1 8km (11 \ miles)
behind the towing aircraft. For tow lengths of over
6000m (20 000ft), stepped cables are used.

The target is fully instrumented and entirely selfcontained with the capability of simulating the dynamic

The main purpose of the mobile target, therefore, is to
play the role of a target submarine without the cost and

Operations trainer
This system uses digital computation and provides a
number of radar-carrying ships, targets and a realistic
coastline to those under training. Its main purpose is
to train operators and plotters in their basic skills and to
weld them into a complete operations room team. If
there are sufficient radar-carrying ships and targets in
this type of trainer, all can also be used for tactical training of the Command. Examples are the Redpole trainer
shown here, with six radar-carrying shipsand 30 targets,

Hovercraft liferaft
Because of the high passenger/crew ratio, hovercraft
require the minimum of crew time during an
emergency. The Hovercraft Liferaft Type H.30 (right)
is automatically inflated after manual ejection, and the
wide, straight entrances allow rapid and easy boarding.
The rigid container is designed for open-deck stowage
on high-speed craft.

Aircraft liferafts
from one-man to 25-man sizes, aircraft
liferafts are designed for minimum weight and packed

Of the many extinguishing agents available, bromochlorodifluoromethane (BCF) is the one most fre-
quently recommended because of its remarkable extinguishing efficiency plus its low toxicity.
It
is
approved by the British ARB as a replacement for
methylbromide (MB), although the latter is still
generally approved for use in automatic extinguishers
for military aircraft. Extinguishers filled with alternative
extinguishing agents, such as chlorobromomethane
(CB), bromotrifluoromethane (BTM) and dibromodifluoromethane (DDM), can also be supplied to meet
special risks or specific applications.

Main gearbox
The semi-automatic main gearbox is mounted as an integral unit with the engine
and provides five forward speeds and one reverse. An air-operated control is
used to select the gears, an indicator is provided to show which gear is in use
and a built-in inhibitor unit protects the engine from damage through overrevving during downward changes
Gear changes are made under full power (hot shift) with no loss of speed
and consequent risk of bogging down in soft ground.

Transfer gearbox
The transfer gearbox is a two-speed spur gear unit of constant-mesh type with
sliding dog change. Engagement of front-wheel drive is independent of normal
gear selection and may be used with either ratio. Gear or power-drive selection
is not affected by wind-up in the lower shaft.
Gear changes in the transfer box can only be carried out when stationary

Brakes
Split-system air-operated spring brakes are fitted as standard, providing both
service and secondary systems.
The foot operates the brakes on all wheels. The secondary or parking brake
control lever, which is mounted on the steering column, actuates the spring
brake chambers on the rear bogie only and is capable of holding the vehicle
fully laden at 21 tons on a 1 in 4 gradient.
Compressed air for braking is supplied by an engine-mounted and enginedriven compressor with a nominal output of 0-340 mVmin (12 ftVmin).
Electrical system
is provided by a 24 V negative earth 178

Fork lift trucks are rated for capacity at 610 mm (24 in)
from the front face of the fork and are expected to
comply with British Standard 3726 which lays out
four stability tests to ensure safe rated capacities.
The latest addition to the Henley range is the Hawk
series, made in three sizes of 1800, 2270 and 2720 kg
(4000, 5000 and 6000 lb) capacity.
The Henley Hawk chassis is fabricated from steel

plate, the hollow vertical portion of the U-section
being utilised as tanks for 41 litres (9 gal) fuel, 68 litres
(1 5 gal) hydraulic oil for the main system and 4-5 litres
(1 gal) for steering, and for tucking away components
such as the battery. The latter is carried on a hinged
panel which can be swung out revealing the battery,
rectifiers and control apparatus for the alternator.

The design of any automatic test equipment is dependent on many technical, operational and economic
factors. To obtain a cost-effective solution a balance
must be struck between capital cost and the cost of
introduction, maintenance and possible future extension.
The choice of whether to use multi-system or singlesystem testing, what computer to use, what operator/
test station interface and what interface between test
station and equipment under test to provide, all require
detailed consideration in relation to the application and
associated operational requirements.

plug-in unit. Triggering over the entire 100-MHz bandwidth is
possible with a type 1 1 B2A sweep-delay time-base unit.
An accelerating potential of 14 kV provides a small, bright CRT

A quick-change line-voltage selector permits simple and convenient adaptation to six different line-voltage ranges.

Radiation monitors
for medicine, research
Nuclear Enterprises Limited manufactures a very wide range of monitors for measuring radioactivity in man and
environment. This activity may have been induced deliberately for diagnostic and medical research purposes,
may result from accidental exposure to radioisotopes or radioactive fall out, or may occur naturally.
Brief descriptions are given of three categories of monitors to illustrate the scope of the range. Many of the
larger systems, however, are constructed to meet particular monitoring requirements after consultation with the

Based on our experience of over 30 years in the design and manufacture of photographic cameras and equipment
of all kinds, we have now developed a range of ancillary units which drastically reduce the time between exposure

A reinforced plastics composite provides a lightweight armour for protecting infantry and security forces against
small-arms fire. The armour is designed to permit the wearer to perform his duties with the minimum of restriction
under all conditions. To provide additional comfort in wearing and to minimise the shock of impact to the body, a
resilient lining is bonded to the inside face of each panel.
The

armour
is
detach-
able.
Weighing little more than 5 kg (1 1 lb), full torso armour can be worn without discomfort
and minimal hindrance to all normal duties. The armour is held securely in place by
adjustable straps; it can be put on and discarded in a matter of minutes, without help

Training service
One of the biggest advantages of sharing in the experience of the British Army through government-togovernment purchasing is that users have full access to
the training methods and equipment worked out for
the British armed forces.
This includes syllabuses,
audio-visual aids and training aids such as mock-ups,
sectioned assemblies, ghosted hulls and skeleton
layouts of electrical, hydraulic and other circuits.
Information service
Frequent bulletins inform users not only of modifications to equipment carried out, but also provide information on performance under various conditions, advice
on maintenance and repair, details of malpractices to be
guarded against, warning of operational hazards in
different environments and other vital data.
This type of information is derived from practical
experience under active service conditions in all parts
of the world, in all types of climate.
In addition, expert advice is available at all times to
meet specific technical or operational requirements
and problems.

Technical support
for
defence forces
Defence departments throughout the world will be only too well aware that as defence equipment develops in
it also becomes more complex, and that this fact could place a considerable strain on the technical
resources
of defence forces, particularly those which are relatively small and have to develop rapidly
other
and
a capability in the latest defence techniques.
Without specialist assistance a defence force might find it impossible to master comparatively new equipment
such as high-performance armoured vehicles, radio-radar and electrical equipment. At the very least, re-equipment in these fields calls for an intensive training programme.
This is necessarily a restricted and highly specialised activity and because of the discreet nature of this class of
operation, it may not be commonly known that assistance is available through the medium of our organisation
which has, over a period of many years, specialised in this type of work.
Backed by our main organisation in Jersey, Channel Islands, we are in a unique position to offer a complete
and comprehensive technical support service for British armoured vehicles and other military installations including
radar and communications systems.

Support services
shipbuilding and naval service
in
Various support services are available to overseas countries purchasing or building warships such as the Type 42
destroyer. The need to ensure maximum operational availability and value for money over the whole of a ship's
life has led to an increasingly close liaison between customer and shipbuilder over a widening area of activity.
Technical aid
The needs of overseas countries wishing to establish
their own shipbuilding programmes can be handled by
such as that established
by Vickers in 1965 to guide the construction of three
Leander Class frigates in India. Technical aid agreements typically include advice on shipyard layout
and equipment, provision of ship drawings and documentation, procurement of equipment, planning, and
assistance with setting-to-work.
