Default Gemini Sensor Launch Shroud?

Does anyone have a picture of the Gemini with the Nose Sensor Shroud
in place?

Thanks,

Carl

I believe the nose sensor shroud was white, shaped somewhat like a
galvanized trash can lid, and covered the entire nose of the Gemini.
The white area in this picture is where the Gemini radar antennas are
located.

I think your photos are of it, and this is just the uncovered nose.
What made me think this might be of it was the description of the photo
which said it was a Gemini being prepared for launch, so I assumed it
would have the cover on it: http://www.jrl-engineering.com/Space_gem-3.html

Thank You Very Much!!!! Those are Real Good Research Material. I am
putting the final details on the model. This is going to be the most
deatailed MOL/Gemini B test launch model, Yet, (Unless there is one I
have not seen out there).

I will post pictures to Whomever wants a set by Friday. Next I need to
get back to the Saturn I (SA-1). I finally think I can get the boat
tail right.

I think that living the history thru this kind of research, and
building models for display, (Is the most fun I have ever had, (With
My shirt on)).
