OK, the stuff I worked on in 92-93 was not THAT old...but still old for its time. We also had an ordinance comm computer that ran on an 8086A processor which was first designed in 1978'ish. It was still in use in the 90's.

We had the bigger truck boxes...the CSCE, commonly called a Rat Rig though I think that was a misnomer as I believe my foggy memory tells me that the rat rig was a different model..altogether

We could also cram that stuff in the back end of a jeep. Had a jump seat that swung out from the back.
