[Milsurplus] [MMRCG] Refurbed (?) U.S. Navy RAS Receiver

[Konrad Werzner]

Digging through the DTIC database, I found one of the benchmarking
documents for the RAS. It's labeled "XRAS" since it was still experimental
at the time and appears to fail in a lot of Navy benchmarking requirements.
It's interesting to note that this is what caused the eventually approved
RAS to use of the 6V6G and 6F8G tubes compared to other HROs. Enjoy
