[TechAssist] Re: Phono Idler tire source

The bomb would fall in a half parabolic shape, not straight down.  In
the recent movie 'Pearl Harbor', the director was criticized for showing
a bomb falling from a plane with the camera following the bomb straight
down.  It was a good shot, but not accurate.  The only way a bomb could
fall straight down would be to drop it from a static helicopter with no
wind.

Well you're correct, the bombadier's targeting crosshairs were adjusted
for
windage, vehicle speed, and altitude, which obviously means that
momentum
had to be taken into account.
