Anyone Know What This Housing Is For?
 

Grabbed a quick shot of this about a month ago.

I havent seen it since, but wondered what the housing was on the side ? Looks a bit large for a camera pod, any ideas ?

It is a "spcecam" camera housing.

Spacecam website

Can also be nose mounted:

Not sure but I think its too big for the spacecam.

It appeared to be a complete sphere mounted top and bottom with some form of warning label on the top.

Im guessing here, but some sort of imager for detecting "hot spots" in overhead power cables?

You mean to say that Biggles lied to us ? Dashed bad show I must say.

Someone from PDG should know!

Must be a stealth replacement for the AEW Seaking!

It is a camera, as for type? Don't know. I do believe it does thermal as well.

That looks quite precarious on the low-skid 350.

Doesnt it say spacecam on it?

ahh


Foolish I am

:ok:

It didnt appear to have Spacecam on it, it also looks bigger and appeared to be fixed both top and bottom, like it could spin on a central vertical axis.
