For Sale: Third Stage (S-IVB) Flight Control System Accumulator Reservoir Assembly which provided hydraulic fluids for gimbaling the Rocketdyne J-2 engine. The Accumulator Reservoir was used to enable thrust vector steering, accomplished by gimbaling the J-2 engine for pitch and yaw control during the boost and separation phase. Its installed location on the third stage is annotated on the last image below.

Contact me if interested; this is exportable to Europe.

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't it of the second stage not the third stage?

Opps It's my mistake sorry.

Very interesting object, I wish I had space for it.
