Course Setting Bomb Sight : ウィキペディア英語版 | Course Setting Bomb Sight
The Course Setting Bomb Sight (CSBS) is the canonical ''vector'' bombsight, the first practical system for properly accounting for the effects of wind during the dropping of bombs. It is also widely referred to as the Wimperis sight after its inventor, Harry Wimperis. The CSBS was originally developed for the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS) in order to attack submarines and ships. It was first introduced in 1917, and was such a great advance over earlier designs that it was quickly adopted by the Royal Flying Corps, and the Independent Air Force. It has been called "the most important bomb sight of the war". After the war the design found widespread use around the world. A US version of the CSBS was used by Billy Mitchell on his famous attack on the ''Ostfriesland''. The basic design was adapted by almost all air forces and used well into World War II. It was eventually replaced in British service by the more advanced designs like the Mark XIV bomb sight and the Stabilized Automatic Bomb Sight. Other services used vector bombsights throughout the war. ==History==
