The signal projector and hand-fired signals are designated as which pair?

• A. MK-31 and MK-80
• B. MK-29 and MK-70
• C. MK-50 and MK-60
• D. MK-70 and MK-50

Answer: (A)

In this type of signaling gear, the parts are paired by specific MK designations so you can quickly identify which projector works with which signals. The signal projector is the device you load and aim to emit a flare, while the hand-fired signals are the cartridges you ignite by hand to produce the signal. The established pairing is MK-31 for the projector and MK-80 for the hand-fired signals, meaning they are designed to be used together. The other pairs refer to different equipment families and aren’t the standard combination for this signaling system.
