Gauntlet hose mic plugs
The hunt for real parts continues...
According to reference photos, the ends of the gaintlet hoses feature a 3 hole/prong microphone plug. These were produced by ITT Cannon, and still are available for ~$75 for a set for PP-2.
Here they are as seen on the right hose:

I was able to find some vintage looking ones for WAY way below the $75 price tag from the manufacturer. Same part # & everything, just needs some TLC.

They may not serve there purpose anymore but they will serve the suit well. As for the extras, I'll more than likely sell some pieces in the cargo hold.

With the warhead fins appearing to stick out a bit more, I decided to get the missle parts printed to make adjustments to my satisfaction.
