Abstract
Firing shift is the shifting of artillery fire from one target
(registration) to another by the application of corrections
determined from the adjustment of the initial firing data
for the first target to the second (application). In this paper,
a shift method based on simultaneous firing at two
different registration targets rather than a single one is
introduced. A method is presented for using the observed
data to explicitly solve for four major environmental parameters
that affect ballistic trajectories and subsequently
update them for the application mission. The distribution
of the remaining errors is determined and compared with
that of other correcting algorithms. Numerical examples
show the potential of the proposed method.
