Targeting computer on a T-65 X-wing starfighter

"Luke, you switched off your targeting computer! What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I'm all right.
"
―Yavin Base controller, to Luke Skywalker, not anticipating Skywalker's Force abilities during the Battle of Yavin[src]

A targeting computer was a device used aboard starfighters to aid pilots in targeting their weapons. A target was considered vulnerable when it was aligned with the electronic crosshairs of a targeting computer's gun-sights. During the Galactic Civil War, the targeting computers used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic indicated the distance in meters.
