Hi together!

Really an impressive amount of replies and quite cool equipment which
gets preserver all over the world! Really great!

From my side I have various MIL-SPEC gear. (1) First of all an intertial
navigation system Ferranti FIN1010 from the early 1970ties containing an archaic bitserial computer with 16/32 bit word length (can be switched on the fly by toggling a bit - Architecture unique and some mixture of
Ferranti Pegasus and Argus):

(This is restored to working condition, see my older video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EQqfxiGgd8 I do only know of 4 such
systems still onlin on the world)

Looks like you just have the gyro spun up, there seem to be no cables attached in the video. The second one does show it communicating with the rest of the gear.

Wow, seriously cool!
