40 mm Bofors AA guns made in GB and US

[Godwin Hampton]

The Britsh produced a particular generating set for the Bofors and Predictor. This consisted of a Coventry Climax 4 cylinder side-valve engine of 847cc capacity belt-driving a Crompton Parkinson 3-phase alternator. Output was 2.75 KVA ( 130 volts, 12.2 amps ) at 3000 rpm. Frequency was 50 cycles per second.

I have the remains of two such sets, from which one can hopefully be assembled in the future.

If your generator is this type, I have the Field Manual, which only covers the set,though.

Could I be so cheeky as to ask for a photocopy of your Manual, as mine gives no details of the actual Fire Control. I will naturally cover any expenses incurred.
