S-76 Eagle

I worked with Nick L. and Eddie D. from time to time in Stratford. The weapons installation was simple a straight forward. A beam was attached to the floor and extended through cutouts in the doors. All of the wiring was internal to the aircraft and ran out through the beam. A flip down site was mounted in front of the pilot for direct fire weapons and a TOW sight was located on the co-pilots side. The most significant modification required was to the tail cone. It was beefed up to handle the TOW launch motor blast. The TOW blast test conducted in Patuxent River.
