I can almost hear Dave Stinson saying, "Oh no! John's opening the door
to the monster within the Vault...!"
But I'll try to be brief...
Suffice it to say that it had an ever changing suite of countermeasures
equipment in addition to that which is shown in that link I provided
earlier - http://aafradio.org/sidebar/PB4Y2_Line_Maintenance_Manual.html
I don't have a single page overview of the countermeasures equipment
from the Line Maintenance Manual, but it is essentially identical to
that in the slightly earlier ferrets that employed the B-24 as a
platform - see http://aafradio.org/sidebar/B-24_Ferret.pdf
That equipment was all installed in the area behind the ATC and RAX-1
receiver rack in the PB4Y2 aircraft. Ignore the navigator's equipment
listed there - it was upgraded for the PB4Y2.
See...I was very well controlled and discreet...
