The launchers were graduates of a pilot course within the NMA squadron (navigators, machine gunners / launchers, wireless).

At the end of the course, the trainees received the rank of sergeant and flight wings with a bomb drawing in the center.

With the development of technology, automatic bombing systems came into service that eliminated the role of the launcher.

Today, the person responsible for the bomb systems and adjusting the smart bombs to the target, is an airborne crew member called a weapons systems officer.

The casting profession was abolished in 1958.
