In World War II, a Type A chronometric tachometer was a handheld device used by the Navy and Army Air Forces bombardiers to measure the precise disc speed of a Norden bombsight. The instrument was a crucial accessory for the Norden bombsight, considered one of the most accurate instruments of its kind during the war.
The Date on this Tachometer is 3-13-45, issued to the US Navy.
On August 9, 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki. On September 2, 1945, having agreed in principle to unconditional surrender on August 14, 1945, Japan formally surrendered, ending World War II.
