Applications
The KS-27C Motion Picture Camera System was a U.S. military gun camera and reconnaissance camera system used in aircraft to record targeting and mission data on film. The LB13B computer camera served as the camera control/electronics module within this system, processing and coordinating camera functions during flight operations. Perkin-Elmer's Aerospace Systems division was a significant supplier of electro-optical and imaging equipment to the U.S. military from the 1950s through the 1980s, and the KS-27C system dates from the late 1960s, as evidenced by the 1968 contract order number on the nameplate. This type of equipment is sought today by military aviation historians, aircraft restorers, and collectors of Cold War-era aerospace hardware, as well as by maintenance and support operations working with aircraft that carried KS-27C systems.
This Perkin-Elmer LB13B Computer Camera (P/N 332269) has been inspected and is in good used condition. The housing is intact with no visible cracks or major damage. Some light surface wear and minor scuffing is present on the black enclosure, consistent with age and prior service use. The four mil-spec circular connectors (J1–J4) are present and the red protective dust caps are in place. The S1 toggle switch and fuse holders (F2, F1) are intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
