Product Description
Protractor, Semi Circular, R.A.A., Mils. NSN 6675-66-108-4268
The RAA Protractor is an authentic reproduction of the Royal Australian Artillery service protractor, catalogued under NSN 6675-66-108-4268. Designed for Australian Defence Force members, Commonwealth allied-exercise personnel, cadets and instructors who need the genuine mils protractor used in ADF land nav and fire-support training. What it does: plots grid azimuths in mils (0–6400) and measures distances on 1:25,000, 1:50,000 and 1:63,360 (yards) military topographic maps. A dedicated eight-figure grid plotter for 1:50,000 delivers the 10-metre precision required for close air support, indirect fire missions, patrol reporting and search-and-rescue coordinate exchange. Why the RAA design: semi-circular geometry with a clear zero reference, graduated in the 6400-mil NATO system, and built to ADF artillery standard for FDC, forward observer and infantry patrol use. Familiar to every ADF graduate of Kapooka, Singleton or Puckapunyal land nav programmes. Printed on 1.5mm polycarbonate: UV-cured graphics on the reverse, zero parallax error, waterproof, UV stable, solvent-resistant, flexible. Shrugs off weather, dirt and sweat. Ideal uses: Royal Australian Artillery and ADF personnel, Commonwealth allied exercises, RMC, ADFA and Australian Army Cadets mils training, civilian orienteering, SAR, and off-road touring where grid coordinates matter. Manufactured in Australia at source, made in Buderim, Queensland with fast Australia-wide dispatch.
