The Ranken Dart, RNAS

EODONE

Ordnance Approved
Spotted this at Haughton show on Sunday it was developed by the RNAS and used to drop on Zeppelins, max number 24 down to a single Dart, any one got more info on this, also note the price ticket on the box out side my pocket, if you zoom on the text in the lid a little more info.

Where would anyone ever find another. I realize the price is steep, but you are probably looking at a one of a kind item especially in full kit. I in no way could afford it but think it to be worth the price. Regardless it is a pleasure to see..Thanks........Dano
