📦 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Vintage 1965 North American Aviation F.D.S. Control Unit, Model C14-630, Serial 30, housed in its original Halliburton RF-shielded transport case. Data plates identify North American Aviation, Inc. Space and Information Systems Division, Oklahoma, under Contract NAS9-150, with Halliburton Enterprises case markings dated July 1965.
This portable aerospace electronic control console features multiple analog gauges, elapsed-time instrumentation, pressure-related indicators, GO / NO GO indicators, aerospace-grade connectors, transport handles, and latch-secured aluminum case construction. The case is marked as an RFI shielded enclosure and appears purpose-built for transport and field or facility use.
The exact application and operational function of this unit have not been verified. The meaning of “F.D.S.” has also not been confirmed. No supporting documentation is included. Based on markings, construction, and layout, it appears to be aerospace-related control, monitoring, testing, or ground-support equipment, but that is not guaranteed.
This item has not been tested. Power-on status is unknown. Operational status is unknown. It is being sold strictly as found, as-is, for collection, display, restoration, parts, or further research.
An unusual and highly collectible piece of mid-century aerospace hardware suitable for collectors of NASA-era equipment, aviation instrumentation, military-industrial electronics, or industrial design.
