Default Turbine Generator Identification

Can anyone ID these turbine powered generator sets? I have tried for a few hours without any luck. I can't get any model # information at all on these. What are they truthfully worth assuming they are not working?

No clue on an ID, but I can answer they would be worth at least scrap.

Hope someone recognizes them for you.

That was what I said. Just trying to figure out what output voltage/frequency they have and if applicable a NSN etc. That way we can try to figure out weight if they are duds.

It'd be worth having one just for the sound they make as the turbine spools up and come to operating speed.

Thanks for the video link - wonder what that popping/sputtering sound is as it spools up. Bet it's annoying loud as well (a good thing) =)

I think its the sound of the fuel being ignited. Yes it is very loud A neighbour came round and asked what it is? I told him its a camo box! He said what does it do? Makes a noise say's I.
