Need help identifying bros
Context: found in a dump with a bunch of jeep shocks and a roll of fuse in it
Label is damaged all I can read is “case, carrying
For RO-166A/UP”
I’ll post a picture of the label below

I couldn't find anything under RO-166A/UP or RC-166A/UP. Probably search engines being shit as usual.
Best I can decipher the nomenclature with my references there is no RC so it would to me be a RO-166A/UP, the coding would be for a piece of supplemental equipment.
RO = recorder
166 = model 166
A = first modification variant (like M16[[[A1]]])
/ = for use with
U = general utility
P = radar
Or at least that's what comes out via AN/ prefix equipment code.
NPFC - MIL-R-55217
RECORDER-PROCESSOR-VIEWER, RADAR MAPPING RO-166( )/UP

I have no idea, but I have seen a similar case that was carrying sensitive old computer equipment.
Anything on the brown label below the hook latches?
What does button near latches say anon?
It's a relief valve caution

Huh. One of the things that "popped up" was something about the MGM-166 LOSAT system.

>By the time the test program was finished it was obvious the Army was going to cancel LOSAT after the low-rate initial production (LRIP) batch of about 435 missiles was delivered.
Anon, you may be sitting on a 40 year old piece of American military history.
UP
Probably means uplink if that is what it is.
What's in the box?
What's in the fricking box?

Jack shit
Old case for rando boring shit.

The case is an earlier version of:
MIL-C-4150J, MILITARY SPECIFICATION: CASES, TRANSIT AND STORAGE, WATERPROOF AND WATER-VAPORPROOF (29 NOV 1989) [NO S/S DOCUMENT]., This specification establishes the requirements for rigid, reusable, fire moronant, waterproof and water-vaporproof, rectangular cases manufactured from ferrous or non-ferrous metals or non-metallic materials.
Neat, lucky to find a good case like that anon. Found a multi million (or maybe 1-2b?) radar array taken to pieces in a junk yard once. Just the CRTs and related parts but the part/equipment tag was on the ground and I looked the contract number up IIRC. Crazy what you can find.
