A New Estimation Method for Computing Effective Fire Range of Weapon
Ding Jin · Fire Control and Command Control · 2010
Seveal work had been done in this paper.firstly,two index definitions of fire range is compared and a better one which is more suitable is recommended,secondly,weapon calibre and pill muzzle velocity is taken into account when computing the fire range,lastly an improved new estimation method of calculating effective fire range is put forward.Based on recommended index definition and the new estimation method,the fire range of weapons is estimated and some testing results has shown the new method is fit for both the direct weapon and the indirect weapon,it improve the veracity of estimating the fire range quite a little especially for direct weapon,such as tank and so on.whereas,tradional method which apply indirect-weapon fire range formula mechanically to direct weapon is not as good as this one.
