Operating on AM frequencies, it gave squad leaders and forward observers the ability to communicate across short distances without being tethered to a field telephone. Used extensively across all theaters of World War II and into the Korean War, the SCR-536 became a symbol of the communications revolution in modern warfare. It is among the most recognizable and historically significant radios ever fielded. 3D printed products may require minor post-processing.
