XM387

There's a glovebox door for a XM387 on e bay, I googled it and only found 1 or 2 pics of a hydrogen peroxide servicing truck? Looks like it was based on the m37. What did they service with the peroxide?

The one here that was used on the Redstone rocket project, it was a Woomera from memory and peroxide was the fuel oxidiser I think (correct me if I am wrong guys), that truck has since been sold on to a bloke at Toowoomba on the mainland.

As a pre-computer nerd I can tell you that while Peroxide failed as a mono-fuel, in combination with a couple different catalysts it was very effective medium yield fuel. It was also responsible for some spectacular airborne explosions in the Upland California area.

Thanks Bob, I knew somebody on here would know that...
