Hello Fluorofan96, this is a fixture type “RSL1”. These lights were already available in the GDR from the first half of the sixties.
Three types were built:

- RSL0 with 2x 250W MV (the last examples already with SON 175W)

- RSL1 with 2x 125W MV, more rarely with 2x 80W MV, in the last years of production with 2x SON 70W

- RSL2 with 2x 80W MV

Nice classic German lanterns! How many of these still survive nowadays?

It’s always good to see lovely old MV lanterns such as this still in service. A wonderful East German design. Cool
