There was a 1959 book about the Andrea Doria sinking titled "Collision Course"
that had pictures of the inside of a USCG aircraft in which the AN/ARC-2 and
the AN/ARC-27 are shown prominently.
The two TS-2A "Tracker" training aircraft at NAS Corpus Christi on which I flew
in 1971 and 1972 had the AN/ARC-2 installed. The aviation ETs complained about
how hard parts were to get for it in the early 1970s. (The same aircraft also
had a R-23/ARC-5 set on board.)
