Can you id this item?

OK - so a very nice guy donated this to the museum saying it is a bomb sight - but I am pretty sure it is a piece of surveying equipment - can anyone here help with a better id??







Thanks,

Could it possibly be some sort of Drift Meter?

[RAMC181]

It's a Russian/Chinese/etc. artillery sight of some description.

The core unit can be seen bolted on to something else here:

I was guessing drift meter as well as I have an earlier cruder version, but w/ similar controls/ adjustments/ etc......... for sale if interested.
