interesting item. thanks for sharing
Do you know who built those field kitchens? The museum I volunteer at has one and we are trying to identify the manufacturer
German,
I volunteer at a museum in the US, we have one of these field kitchens. Do you know who built them? I suspect that they were built by the Israeli firm of Netzer Sereni, but I haven't been able to confirm this. We are planning to restore ours to operating condition. Ours came from a museum in Germany, I have no clue as to how it got there.
Thanks,
Steve
sorry i dont know the manufacturer, i dont remember seeing any marks on them apart from a faded sun symbol from the Argentinian Flag.
BL755 cluster bombs were used quite a bit in the Falklands,They were used around Mount Kent against helicopters on the ground as they had a large footprint making it a bit easier to get more than one at a time.There was also an incident when Flt Lt John Rochfort was in one of the Harriers returning to the shipcrashe into the Port catwalk and was left hanging off the edge and was sitting on the bomb which being a soft skin weapon was starting to split.They recovered the aircraft and dumped the bomb over the side .
