The IV-15 is the Soviet analog of the popular DM160 / 6977 miniature tuning indicator tube. Like the DM160, the IV-15 does not have a variable length display, only the brightness can be changed. With an envelope height of 25mm the IV-15 is slightly larger than the DM160, but is still a very tiny device.
