Hello
Bought this Hughes Aircraft A-4 leading Gun Sight because it is cool. It looks similar to the F-86 sights used in Korea but it has some differences. Especially the wingspan adjustment scale (goes from 240 to 60 and in the opposite direction as the F-86 sights I have seen) and the lack of the Sight range Window.

I would like to know what type of aircraft this was used on. It has a USAF tag on it with all the numbers.

Have been looking pretty hard and have run out of leads. Any help would be appreciated.

Photos are above.

Best Regards
Rob

Hello

For example the F-100 definitely used the A-4 sight
