Part 6/7:
With the motor reinstalled and connected to a 110V variable power supply, the entire system was tested multiple times. The motor operated smoothly, moving the targeting mechanism as intended. The glass binoculars and dials inside the system were checked for clarity and cleanliness, confirming no corrosion or fogging.
The project culminated in achieving a fully functional, historically preserved target designation system that has never been used in combat—an artifact that had likely never seen wartime deployment. The restoration process demonstrated a blend of vintage craftsmanship and modern repair techniques, ensuring this piece of military history will be preserved for display or educational purposes.
