Leaving a electronic device in full sun in summer inside locked car is likely push the boundary on standard LCD screens


Typically, standard LCD character and graphics modules provide a temperature range of 0°C to +50°C. However, several display manufacturers offer extreme temperature models with operating temperatures of -40°C to +80 or +85°C.

Without giving away any military secrets (since the system has been decomissioned), when I was young man I worked in a MIM-23 Hawk missile battery.

My small country had 8 of these batteries. The standing joke was that in the event of actually needing them it would be possible to piece max 3 somewhat operational batteries together from all 8. Especially the notorious ROR - Range Only Radar (or "Repair Only Radar") was never working.

My country also had an jamming system to jam enemy radars, which was located centrally at the high command. Once activated none of the radars were working and the battery couldn't fire any missiles at all.

Another fun anecdote, during an excersise the whole battery was moved to a field of some random farmer. A week after the excersise the farmer called and asked when the remaining equipment would be removed. They forgot a carrier with 3 live spare missiles on his field. They had been standing around there for a week unsupervised.

It was a bloody joke - all of it.

A politician of my country fameously said the our military should be eliminated and replaced with an answering maching with the prerecorded message "we surrender". It would certainly have saved a lot of money with most likely the same result.

I was a Gunner on a mrap that it's TC (passenger) outside door switch actually turned the vehicle off instead of opening the door. This was in Iraq
