It does bear a mild resemblance to some of the WWII aircraft radios they made, but why would it have a leather carrying case? Perhaps a piece of test equipment for taking into aircraft or armored vehicles to service or test the unit in place? Looks like a newer piece of gear than WWII, seems like there should be something around to explain it.
