Since another thread about this aircraft came to my attention.
I did a quick search to find some more pictures of the NKPB-7 bombsight.

Here are a few views that I posted on the first page of this thread back from WWII.

 



The Russians actually are still using this bombsight now. Talk about getting your moneys worth. :aok
Here are a few picture of it that I found.



















Have no idea how it works :headscratch: no eyepiece for it based off the pictures I have found.

Found a Russian link talking about Russian optics.
Interesting read once you translate it.

Would that mean it's effective then?  Why get rid of something that works pretty damn good? :)
