Best Answer

The Norden sight was designed for use on US Navy aircraft by Carl Norden, a Dutch engineer educated in Switzerland who emigrated to the US in 1904 and worked on bombsights at the Sperry Corporation before starting his own company. The Norden was later adopted by the USAAF. The Norden was initially built at the Norden plant in New York City before the start of WWII and then at several other companies during the war, with a wide variety of different versions being built, all with minor differences.
