I see Trinity Marine have a firestreak for sale

I was going to say that surely all those pop-rivets cannot be original!

Is this (the remnants of) some sort of ‘handling round’? The nose cone seems to be (nicely) welded aluminium rather than the glass nose you’d expect for the seeker-head?

Could well be a training round, the head I can see rivets there, the glass ones screw on with a very fine thread, though the head isn’t easy to see properly on the photo, I had some sections of training rounds they are hollow with weighted steel ballast, and not very interesting. I also had the real one which is packed with electronics of the very old fashioned variety, and incredibly interesting.

They’ve got some nice concrete-filled bombs though! 🙂

And a Lynx that’s still restorable for a reasonable price

“Laser Guided” !! :stupid:

I have some fins in far better condition than the one in the photo held on with pop rivets

Trinity Marine have about two-thirds of a Firestreak for sale…

…and that is a bit pricey for only two-thirds of a Firestreak! 🙂
