The first fire control radars for large, main- battery guns - TopicsExpress



          

The first fire control radars for large, main- battery guns entered the fleet in the summer of 1941. In the hands of skilled operators they fundamentally changed fire control. Suddenly naval gunnery became a truly closed loop; the new instruments of perception could track targets, follow shells along their trajectories, and display shell splashes for spotting. Surface fire now became a matter of matching the target pips to the pips from the shell splashes. Spotting aircraft were soon removed from battleships. - Between Human And Machine, David A. Mindell.
