Delivered new to the Police of the People's Republic of Hungary in 1979 as R-13, where R is for Rendőrség (Police). A sense of satire humor from the Police, that this useful workhorse not just called, but officially named as Blue Thunder (stickered under the “CE” titles) after Roy Scheider's unforgettable classic, however this coffee grinder is a flying tin, compared to that one in the movie. WFU 2012.
