From Rounds to Rockets !!!! Here we have a Rapier surface to air launcher,I have restored the launcher but have the complete Blindfire system with it, which consists of the Radar trailer and the remote sighting equipment.This particular unit served on the Falklands during the campaign in the early 80's but as you can see I have restored it to Gulf war livery where they also served in the 90's.
This type of launcher has now been replaced by its bigger brother which carries 8 rockets instead of 4.
The rockets it carries are the standard drill unit of which I have two spare which I would trade for QF 6pdr items.
