That extra link is Otherworldly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But how do I get it to translate? I get the idea of it but !

For all translations for that geographic area I use Yandex Yandex. Many Yandex core persons have fled Russia since Feb 22

Some people call Yandex the Russian Google but Yandex is actually a little older.

I'm looking for information on H2X (AN/APS-15) RADAR systems. Specifically on the "Mickey" set installed on B-17s:

• Illustrated Parts Manual
• Operations/Procedures

I have a copy of ROBIF but that's more of a general manual. Photos of the Mickey, interior fuselage views would be nice as well showing installation and motor for stow/deploy. I've had a tough time finding information about B-17 Pathfinders. Any help would be appreciated.

There are no manuals at the following links, but there are a few images from manuals and from actual installations. Plus a bunch of related info that might help in your search.

Maybe take a look at these articles covering the APQ-13 and APS-15:

PDF pg146
"https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Electronics/40s/Electronics-1946-05.pdf"

PDF pg149
"https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Electronics/40s/Electronics-1946-06.pdf"

They do not show the early nose installation.


Also, there is a mock-up of the B-17 type installation for the radar operators station at NASM:

"APS-15 Radar"


Also, try this article for a nice side-view of the first type of nose installation:

"https://96bg.org/Newsletter/62.pdf"


And this website (at the bottom of the page) for some images of the later nose installation as fitted in the Pacific (though this particular airframe is being used for SAR:

"Lawrence Dietz: P-40 Mechanic in the Aleutians by Doug Dietz"


Also, this website, with info on the H2S and H2X equipped B-17s:

"B-17GSH radar equipped B-17"

Thank you. Some of that I have, some not. This is a puzzle and any pieces help.

I am looking for the following manual:

Авиационный мотор АШ-82
М. Воениздат НКО

Aviation engine ASh-82
M. Voenizdat NKO
1945

does any one happen to have that or can show me where to find it?

many thanks

 

[MiTasol]

There are a couple of Russian sites that my have it. You could start with the Monino site https://aviarestorer.ru/ (or https://aviarestorer.ru/threads/knigi-po-matchasti.368/page-25) or go to Технические описания

Likewise you could try the Krakow site Muzeum Lotnictwa Polskiego w Krakowie

 

[Yew Staff]

Thanks MiTasol but I couldnt find that there

Closest I've got is a 1961 Ash82T O&M manual. It may have some of the info you need

 

[MiTasol]

Aviarestorer has Ла-9 с мотором АШ-82ФН Инструкция авиамеханику 1948 which may provide some info as well

 

[Yew Staff]

gumbyk
that would be most welcomed

MiTasol
many thanks, that would also be fantastic

Mike: It looks like Curtis did most of their own fabrication on throttle assemblies until the D model at least. Running thru the available drawings, I couldn't find an installation drawing, for the throttle, but did find numerous parts drawings. The guys at Precision Aeromotive or at Pay's might be a better source of info.

Авиационный мотор АШ-82

The 1947 issue by 'Oborongiz' is widely available, if that is of any help.
