=== Fire control === The ''Brooklyn'' class was deployed with the Mark 34 director and later the Mark 3 radar. This would be upgraded to the Mark 8 and again to the Mark 13 radar. The secondary battery was controlled by the Mark 28 and upgraded to the [[Ship gun fire-control system#Mark 33 GFCS|Mark 33 fire control systems]]. The associated radars were the Mark 4 fire control radar and upgraded again to the Mark 12. Two anti-aircraft fire directors were fitted to each ship. A late World War II refit saw the [[Ship gun fire-control system#Mark 51 Fire Control System|Mk 51 director]] installed for the Bofors guns. Night engagements were improved when in 1945, the Mark 57 and 63 directors were installed.<ref>Stille p. 130</ref>
