Default Has course auto pilot taken the place of level stabilizer?

For the US and German planes they now have stabilized bomb sights. Before it was align with target then apply level stabilizer, use rudder trim for small corrections left/right, input TAS and height and use bomb sight automation to drop bombs.
Now it appears for the German planes you need to align with target then use course ahead which places you in a stabilized mode, then apply course auto pilot, then use course left and right for minor corrections. Still have to apply TAS and altitude before using bomb sight automation.

For Russian planes its align with target, center/level bubble then apply level stabilizer, input TAS and altitude and set proper sight ahead angle and use rudder trim for minor left right corrections except for TB-3 which has no trim capability.

So it appears level stabilizer isnt needed for US and German planes since course auto pilot does the same basic function.
