A reconfigurable control for a combat vehicle such as a tank, personnel
carrier, or aircraft, is presented. The control includes a grip, a base
and a seal. The grip has a lower surface and a chamber. The grip includes
a first electrical connector and a key located within the chamber. The
base has an upper surface and a shaft. The base includes a second
electrical connector and a keyway. In an installed position, the shaft is
located within the chamber such that the grip's lower surface and the
base's upper surface are substantially coplanar, the first connector
electrically engages the second connector, the key mechanically engages
the keyway, and the seal facilitates a compression fit between the grip
and the base for sealing the chamber such that at least one of
contaminants are prevented from entering the chamber and noise vibration
rattle is eliminated.
