SB-24 Radar Equipped Snoopers

Check it out... the SB-24 was a radar equipped "Snooper" aircraft long before it was a speedlight!

Radar equipped Liberator, with an extra crew member to serve as radar operator. In the Pacific, they are used for low-level attacks and shipping strikes at night, and for pathfinder operations. the 13th AF activated the 868th ‘Snooper Squadron’ flying SB-24 on January 1, 1944. The 5th Air Force activated the 43rd BG, 64th BS as a ‘Super Snoopers’.

Nikon SB-24 User Manual Online



If you're like me (and David over at Strobist), you've got a few Nikon SB-24 Speedlights in your arsenal. I love the little beauties, and I'm always on the look-out for more, especially when I can get them for a good deal!

Unfortunately, it hasn't always been easy to track down the Nikon SB-24 User Manual, but today I've got GREAT news. As David was so kind to point out, you can get the SB-24 manual online here!

Enjoy!

P.S. David has a great page on the SB-24 here.
