Druck ADTS405F TS-4463/P Air Data Test Set — Auction Analysis
The evidence supports a Druck ADTS405F / TS-4463/P-family air-data test set, but exact Mk/revision, current calibration, pump/control performance, remote terminal, hoses, cables, and complete kit remain unresolved. The blind/as-is ceiling is $100.

RecommendationREVIEW
- Maximum hammer bid
- $100
The auction bid ceiling supported by this analysis, if one is defensible; see costs below for buyer-premium treatment.
Why this decision
REVIEW: the $100 rounded-down blind ceiling preserves the standard profit and approximately 30% ROI requirements under the $2,500 conservative resale model and stated reserves; revision, kit, function, and calibration checks could materially change the outcome.
What to verify before bidding
- MkI, MkI/A, and MkII have materially different OEM support outlooks.
- No internal-pump, leak, Ps/Pt control, or calibration performance is established.

Auction snapshot
This page preserves the September 4, 2026 GSA preview observation for sale 2-1-QSC-I-26-369, lot 032. No bid, bidder count, exact close time, seller, or condition wording was retained.
For air-data equipment, revision support, pneumatic control, calibration, and complete workflow hardware matter more than a recognizable case and model family.

How independent review worksHow evidence is classified
Seller facts, photo-derived observations, manufacturer context, unknowns, and LotCaliper assumptions remain explicitly separated.
Photo Derived
Photo-derived
- The case has field-use wear; capped Ps/Pt ports are a physical observation rather than evidence of leak integrity or pressure accuracy.
Not Established
Not established
- Exact Mk/M-level, RVSM suitability, current support, remote, cables, hoses, adapters, power lead, pump function, leak performance, pressure control, safe vent/ground, and calibration.
Manufacturer Context
Independent context
- Druck's current support matrix differentiates legacy ADTS405F revisions and retains calibration support, while the MkII is the upgrade/replacement path.
Lotcaliper Assumption
LotCaliper assumptions
- $2,500 conservative resale for the untested main unit with no remote or complete kit credited.
- $100 rounded-down blind maximum hammer after logistics, testing, risk, selling, profit, and ROI reserves.
Equipment identity

Identity evidence
Supplied photographs and military cross-reference context support the ADTS405F / TS-4463/P / ADTS405-8159-01 family, without a readable exact revision plate.

Untested main-unit model
- Max hammer
- $100
- Gross resale model
- $1,500–$3,000
No remote, hose kit, power cable, current calibration, supported revision, or functional pump/control state is credited.

Revision support, pneumatic proof, and kit completeness
The public identity remains ADTS405F / TS-4463/P family. It is not promoted to a specific Mk, M-level, upgraded MkII, RVSM-capable, or currently calibrated configuration.
A stronger valuation requires an exact revision, complete remote and plumbing kit, successful pump/leak/Ps/Pt control checks, safe vent/ground operation, and current calibration evidence.
- Confirm the data plate, support status, remote, cables, hoses, adapters, and power lead before assigning a complete-system premium.
- Test both pressure channels, leak behavior, control stability, and calibration rather than treating a power-on as functional proof.

Market support assesses how well the available evidence supports the resale assumption. Exact third-party marketplace records may be omitted when source-use rights are unclear. Each dimension uses the published methodology rubric; a confidence label measures the strength and boundedness of its evidence, not the likelihood of a profitable outcome.
Risks and unknowns
High · Revision Support Unresolved
MkI, MkI/A, and MkII have materially different OEM support outlooks.
The photos do not resolve the Mk or M-level.
High · Pneumatic And Calibration Unverified
No internal-pump, leak, Ps/Pt control, or calibration performance is established.
A power-on would not prove pressure accuracy or control performance.
