...Empire desk aboard the Carronade, quickly jury-rigged an alternative system, known as the "bow and arrow" method. Spotters ashore send target coordinates to the ships' Combat Information Centers, where men with aluminum ballistic slide rules (copied from a cardboard original found aboard one of the ships) swiftly tot up the deflection, angle-bearing and elevation of the rocket launchers. Then, just to make sure, one officer stands on the bridge to double-check the course of the rockets.
