Mark 8 Fire Control Computer The Mark 8 Fire Control Computer was developed by Bell Laboratories during World War II . It was initially requested by the USN Bureau of Ordnance as an alternative to the Ford Instruments Mark I Fire Control Computer , in case supplies of the Mk I were interrupted or were unable to be manufactured in the required numbers . The Mk 8 computer used all electric methods of computation , in contrast to the Mk 1 , which performed most computations via mechanical devices . The Mk 8 was found to be more accurate than the Mk 1 and substantially faster in reaching a fire control solution , but by the time it was developed and tested in 1944 , supplies of the Mk 1 were found to be sufficient in quantity . The USN extensively tested the Mk 8 and may have incorporated some of its technology into the post war Ford Instruments Mk1A computer . The Mk 8 technology was similar to that used in the M9 gun data computer used by the US Army for coast defence fire control and in the SCR - 584 radar system computer .

CFS Kamloops Canadian Forces Station Kamloops ( ADC ID : SM - 153 / C - 153 ) is a closed General Surveillance Radar station . It is located northeast of Kamloops , British Columbia . It was closed in 1988 . It was operated as part of the Pinetree Line network controlled by NORAD . History . As a result of the Cold War and with the expansion of a North American continental air defence system , The site at Kamloops was selected as a site for a United States Air Force ( USAF ) radar station , one of the many that would make up the Pinetree Line of Ground - Control Intercept ( GCI ) radar sites . Construction on the base began in 1956 and was completed in 1957 . The base was manned by members of the USAF ' s Air Defense Command ( ADC ) 825th Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron , being known as Kamloops Air Station . In September 1957 , operations began at the unit ' s permanent home . The station was equipped with AN / FPS - 3 A , AN / FPS - 20 , AN / FPS - 87 A ; AN / FPS - 6 B , and AN / FPS - 507 radars . As a GCI base , the 918th ' s role was to guide interceptor aircraft toward unidentified intruders picked up on the unit ' s radar scopes . These interceptors were based at the 25th Air Division , Larson Air Force Base in Washington . In the early 1960s , the USAF relinquished control of the base to the Royal Canadian Air Force ( RCAF ) . This was part of an arrangement with the United States that came as a result of the cancellation of the Avro Arrow . Canada would lease 66 F - 101 Voodoo fighters and take over operation of 12 Pinetree radar bases . Upon hand - over on 1 April 1962 , the operating unit was inactivated and replaced by the RCAF No . 56 Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron and the base became RCAF Station Kamloops . Radars at the station were also upgraded to the following : Radar operations at 56 Squadron were automated on 1 May 1963 by the Semi Automatic Ground Environment ( SAGE ) system , and the station became a long - range radar site . It would no longer guide interceptors but only look for enemy aircraft , feeding data to the Spokane Air Defense Sector SAGE DC - 15 Direction Center of the 25th NORAD Region . As a result of the unification of the Canadian Forces in 1968 , the new Canadian Forces organization absorbed the RCAF , RCN and the Canadian Army . 56 Radar Squadron , RCAF Station Kamloops , became simply Canadian Forces Station ( CFS ) Kamloops in 1967 . Beginning in 1983 the station began reporting to Canada West ROCC . CFS Kamloops closed on 1 April 1988 , the 64th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Air Force . The Station briefly came back to life when the movie " Cadence " , starring Charlie Sheen and Lawrence Fishburne , was filmed at the site in 1990 . The site is now virtually abandoned , except for two areas now used by Telus , which has a communication installation . The buildings stood until around 1997 but have since been removed . The city of Kamloops moved the last search antenna to be used at CFS Kamloops , an AN / FPS - 20 , to Riverside Park as a memorial to the former radar station . The dedication plaque at the Riverside Park states - - - - - -
