Took these photos over the summer. What you see here is a M47 Dragon ATGM. That is a man-portable Anti-Tank Guided Missile. This was replaced by a similar system more of our readers are familiar with known as the Javelin.
We have some examples of this kind of ORD in the armory. But I haven’t seen a proper cutaway in a very long time.
This example was in a private collection in the Southern United States.
