Sharing and question regarding MIL E-waste - Dismantling a Missile Test Equipment.

Hi I dismantled a tester for MILAN Misiles. and found some cool things. I wanted to share the pics.

What would be better in this case to depopulate or sell the boards as it is?. I only sell them on ebay. You get most of the times more money than any scrapyard.
I like it how it was solder with wire like homebrew.

are those gold capped capacitors? it doesen show but besides the yellow coating they have a gold tone.





sorry for the light but those two white habe golden legs as well as the cap


those are some big tantal capacitors. idk the red ones. need to check them out more in detail


this are the power boards and a lot of mosfets



no idea what that ADC120M does. imgonna take it appart



some nice IC's


this are two strips of contacts. So I think overall i can get up to 200gr between 150 - 200 I think.




odd. I never saw a case made out of brass. the base is made out of plastic, because it had like 30 D NI-Mh batteries.


it had this connector strip to manage some connections. those round connectors have also golded conectors.
the wiring its odd. not cooper. ultra thin single wire and very resistant. any ideas? some kind of steel-cooper alloy? i have no idea.


here is a pic of the base. it weights a ton. I wonder if I can revive them.




Next thing Im gonna tear is a Thermalvisor Test Equipment. its big like a 20U rack.
