bombing angle การใช้
- Setting the altitude moved the foresight, below the backlights, setting the correct bombing angle.
- Additional windows provided output values for the indicated airspeed, course, and bombing angle ( or " range angle " ).
- Instead, the bomb aimer had to use manual slide rule calculators to find the drift and bombing angles, and then set the bombsight to these values.
- Altitude was set by moving a lever fore-and-aft against a scale, which rotated the foresight fore or aft, setting one half of the sight's bombing angle.
- Once set, the computor could be left alone and automatically revise the aiming point, moving the sighting head as well as displaying this as the " bombing angle " in another window.
- The distance between the aircraft and target at that moment is the range, so this angle is often referred to as the " range angle ", although " dropping angle ", " aiming angle ", " bombing angle " and similar terms are often used as well.
