Description:

A Complete & Working Korean War Aircraft Sextant c1950
How rare is this folks. This is a Korean War Telescopic Aircraft Sextant. This piece was used by the USAF in Korea between 1950-1953. It was then later re-deployed and used right up until it needed to go in for Repair at Newark New Jersey in 1986. It was last serviced and working in 2008... before becoming a part of my vendors Rare Instrument collection. It is now downsize time so the collection is being thinned down and this cool old instrument is on the block ready for some other enthusiast.
The box measures 45cm by 30cm and 23cm thick. When this was made it cost the US Air Force $13,000 in the 50's to Purchase.... this is an expensive piece of historical equipment folks... in Rare condition. It is reserved at a ridiculous clearance price of $280... so get in first buyers !
