Offered here is a New Old Stock (NOS) Control Panel Cover Assembly designed for the M6 7.62mm Armament Subsystem used aboard the UH-1D "Huey" utility helicopter and CH-47A "Chinook" heavy-lift transport helicopter. Manufactured under Part Number 7792127 and identified by NSN 1005-00-972-8115, this panel cover is an original U.S. military-issued component preserved in good, unused condition.
Historical Context
During the Vietnam War and into the Cold War era, the UH-1D and CH-47A helicopters were equipped with armament subsystems, which typically featured 7.62mm M60 machine guns mounted in flexible side or door configurations. These subsystems allowed aircrews to defend transport aircraft and provide close air support during troop insertions and evacuations.
The control panel cover assembly protected these weapon systems' electronics and interface controls, shielding sensitive components from debris, moisture, and damage during flight operations. Robust and mission-critical, this cover was used to mount and protect key interface points for weapons operation and fire control switching inside the helicopter.
This component would have been found in armament maintenance depots or aircraft spare parts kits and is now a hard-to-find original part for aviation restorers and collectors.
