Le calculateur de bombardement devait [...] déterminer en fonction des conditions de vol instantanées, le point de chute futur de la bombe, si elle était larguée à cet instant. À partir de cette donnée, constamment remise à jour, le calculateur de navigation devait donner au pilote automatique les ordres pour amener ce point à coïncider avec le but et commander automatiquement le largage de la bombe lorsque cette coïncidence était réalisée, en fournissant pour information de l'équipage le décompte des dix dernières secondes. 4, record 1, French, - calculateur%20de%20navigation
