Brief history:
The Mk.18 and A-1 gun sights were standard equipment on American and Allied fighters and bombers during World War II. Thanks to the use of lenses and simple grid-based sighting mechanisms, they enabled more effective targeting of both aerial and ground targets. Typical aircraft equipped with these sights include, among others: P-51 Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt, P-38 Lightning, and the Spitfire Mk.IX in versions adapted to American armament systems. They were used intensively from the early 1940s until the beginning of the Cold War.
