Handloaders will recognize the profile of the three Oehler Skyscreen III sensors strapped atop the scaffold in front of an Avenger air defense system equipped with a .50 caliber machine gun. Beside the vehicle is a million-dollar Doppler radar. The purpose of the test was to validate the radar’s response to 25-round bursts. After the test the operator commented, “The skyscreens rattled around quite a bit, but the system functioned perfectly.”
