Offered here is an original RCA JAN CRC-808 vacuum tube, manufactured for the U.S. Army / U.S. Navy during World War II. This is a true NOS (New Old Stock) example, still housed in its original military box and protective paper wrap.

The tube is clearly marked JAN CRC-808 with RCA branding, and the box is stamped with Contract NXSR 38310 and Accepted May 1944, placing this squarely in the WWII production period. These were built to strict military specifications for reliability and durability in critical communications and equipment.
