ABSTRACT:
It is possible to improve the hit probability of programmable projectiles by means of this method. For this purpose a predetermined optimal disaggregation distance (Dz) between a disaggregation point (Pz) of the projectile (18) and an impact point (Pf) on the target is maintained constant by the correction of the disaggregation time (Tz) of the projectile (18). The correction is performed by adding a correcting factor, which is multiplied by a velocity difference, to the disaggregation time (Tz). The velocity difference is formed from the difference between the actually measured projectile velocity and a lead velocity of the projectile, wherein the lead velocity is calculated from the average value of a number of previous successive projectile velocities.
