HANDBOOK OF AIRCRAFT ARMAMENT by Admiralty Admiralty, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The book has sections on Bombs, Fuzes, Grenades, Machine Guns, Bomb and Gun Sights, Gun Mountings, Small Arms peculiar to aircraft; instruction in Gun-laying and Bomb-dropping; and Armour. Fully illustrated throughout with photographs, drawings and diagrams.
