We still had 1940’s era equipment in some cases when I was in, but I’m sure TACFIRE can only be seen in a museum.

For the FADAC, only one unit is known to be around due to hazardous waste: One reason for a lack of surviving examples of early units was the use of radium on the dials, which officially made them hazardous waste, and as such were disposed of by the United States Department of Energy. Currently there is one surviving example of FADAC at the Fort Sill artillery museum.
