Reflector gunsight for the rear-gunner of Soviet bomber ??? - RGA - 07.05.2008

Hello everybody,

I just wonder, if the gunsight for the rear gunner of all flyable Soviet bomber (except the TB-3) was really a reflector. As far as I know, the reflector gunsight is more complicated and expensive than the normal ironsight. Even the rear gunner of Luftwaffe used the ironsight.

I know, aiming with reflector gunsight is easier, but if it's (perhaps) historically inacurrate, should we try to fix it?
