Is this a G07-FBO tube replacement?

[I've been reading up on CRT tube, CR sockets, pins, etc. and wanted to get some verification on this.]

I picked up two 13" TVs at Goodwill that looked like they might be candidates for a tube replacement in an arcade monitor. I have a G07-FBO in my Pacman so I wanted to see if I could find a compatible tube.

These are models MGA CS-1342R & CS-1344R. I took apart the CS-1342R and here's what I found. The CS-1344R has the same tube.

I found a 12 pin tube. My understanding is that this would be a CR-28 which is what the G07-FBO is looking for.

I took some resistance measurements. I measured the red/blue is 3.7 ohms while the yellow/brown is 55 ohms. The 3.7 is slightly higher than I saw documented but the 55 seems in line.

Any guesses as to whether this will be a drop-in replacement? I don't want to mess with my working machine to see but I might have to start looking for another G07-FBO chassis to test with.

That tube isn't listed in the B & K setup guide. I'd take a guess, based on other similar tubes, except with all that ARE listed, they're ALL different tube types: 41, 3, 24, 31, 23...
