Hi Mike,

hi aidas,

i think, it`s an A-39 aerial camera with uran-27 lens. nice camera.
i have an ra-39, also with uran-27 and 2 filters, from komz. another version is a-39c.
the camera is for vertical and horizontal photos. in aircraft or reconnaisence pod under aircraft. mig-21 has a pod for 6 a-39 cameras.

best regards, mike
