BEARING SIGHT
AZIMUTH ANGLE
NO. 3643
GERMANY
The Raytheon Anschutz bearing sight (No. 3643) is a German-made sighting instrument for measuring azimuth angle, serving the navigation side of the vessel’s marine control system. Its role is to give a visual bearing on a landmark, buoy, another ship or a celestial body, so the bearing can be used for position fixing and for watching how a target’s bearing changes. As a manual optical aid, it complements the electronic navigation equipment on the bridge. This unit is in used condition.
