I have no idea. We did not use weapons in our Pearce RAAF training and I do not recall seeing the gyro gunsights although some inoperative ones may have been fitted on some. The RAN FAA had no gunsights when I flew them from 1969 until the end late 1970 when the Vampire variants were replaced by the MACCHI. Rarely did I fly a clean Vampire in the NAVY - drop tanks always fitted but filled only as required - performance took a hit though.
