I managed to find the silk screened board name on the Keurikon board.  Its
an HK68/V10.
"HK68                   68000         128K     UNIX     ??      84"
Quoted from
http://www.classiccmp.org/mail-archive/classiccmp/1997-05/0519.html
So it is in fact a SBC.  I don't have a clue as to why it is inserted in the
Solbourne box, it is of the era of the Solbourne date wise (the Solbourne
5/600 I have has November 1990 stamped over its original label of 1988, the
HK/68 was originally built in 1984, and mine is copywrite 1989).  You
originally found the machine, any clue as to what governmental branch it was
originally under?
