The range in that photo is about that when, if you are strafing, you
need to have your sight lined up in azimuth with the attack direction
(for the safety trace that has been worked out for that target
etc...). The bomb target in this case is a bus or an ISO
container... and you cannot tell that from the photo can you?

Nice shot. . I'm squinting at the target and can't really swear what it is.
It would seem to depict the actual difficulty in picking out targets at the
altitude and speed you are traveling, except of course, in combat you're
maybe going a bit faster, are a bit more nervous, much more distracted, and
the target may be somewhat obscured by smoke. Other than that, a piece of
cake!
Best,
