These are two computers made in WWII for use by USAAF aircrew. Both are 8 inches in diameter so they are not what you'd call pocket models.

The Computer, Altitude Correction Type C-2 take inputs, indicated pressure altitude and mean temperature and enables you to figure True Altitude.

The Computer True Airspeed A.C. Type G-1 is a classic type computer, similar to that in the E-6B, that enables you to determine true airspeed based on indicated airspeed, altitude, and temperature.
