At least they finally gave you guys a gun pod. If I remember right,
the first issue on that damn thing was a cold eye bore sight with no
radar ranging at all (just a WAG for gravity drop, trajectory shift
and target aspect angle.


Never heard of having a gun pod without a lead computing sight. Might
have happened though. I'm not old enough for a 'nam tour. I flew the
F-4D in training which had no internal gun -- only a pod. But it had a
lead computing sight that was tied into the radar. Operationally I flew
the E that had an internal gun.

Hope you enjoy the book. I think you will. I have lots of good flying
stories in it.
