Dear EditoR
The adapter for the TOW's missile guidance set (MG5) cable
has done a great job of protecting the cable connector pIns.
±rouble ²s the MG5 connector doesn't have the same protec-
tion. The plastic ³n the connector gets banged around.
I
the
connector has to be replaced, the whole MG5 ³nterface
board´a
$2,000
itemµmust also be replaced.
What works for the cable works for the MG5. We put an
adapte¶ NSN
5935-01-117-33±²
on the MGS connecto· Now
the adapter takes a beating¸ not the MGS connector¹ The MGS
lid can stlll be closed with the adapter installed.
