Possibly an entirely new concept, or an evolution of the wartime two dimensional plotting system developed by the US Army that I have seen installed in the MB/GPW.

Maybe the postwar Canadian system was planned for the Ferret?

Interesting, Richard. The US wartime equipment took up quite a bit of space in a jeep. Might have been a challenging install for a Ferret, but heavier armour may not have been such an issue.

David,
If you have seen a mine flail working, there is no way you can visually see where you are going, to this gyro system would have been the cutting edge at the time.
