Waveform generator from an 1940s or 1950s aircraft radar(?) system:

Has CV858, 6X4, CV137 tubes (many of each), amazingly well constructed (for vibration), whole thing can be positive pressurised.
Weighs about 4KG, 45cm long by 27cm diameter. Has a round ended fibreglass cover (completely encloses it for air-tightness).

Nice.  Looks a bit newer than WW2 era, though.
