timing. Together, these measures turned high altitude bombing from guesswork into a disciplined datadriven process. Daylight precision bombing often failed against cloud cover because the optical Nordan bomb site couldn't see through overcast. The US initially adapted Royal Air Force's H2S into ANS-15 and later the higher resolution ANPQ7 which used centimetric radar to map terrain for blind all-weather bombing. APQ7 slotted area antenna and narrower beam width allowed operators to match echoes of rivers, coasts, and factories to preprinted charts. Integration with bomb sites combined radar cursor and crosshair into bombing inputs. The radar operator selected a reproducible aim
