Author_Institution :

Abstract :
An airborne digital computer is used to estimate gun misalignment, ballistic wind and wind at altitude. The navigator interacts with the computer in making decisions as to whether observed data is reliable and whether certain parameters in the computer should be changed. The use of this system still retains human judgment while at the same time gives the navigator the power of digital computation.
