Yes! definitely. Very much so depending on the distance to target.

On the other hand, if the target zig-zags along a line representing the "mean heading" you get a rough estimate of it´s speed along this axis. (A particle moving).

BUT it will be far far less accurate since you have to mark the target as it passes this line. (Difficult and just an estimation). ;)


You may try magnetic pistol setting the deoth accordingly. hopefully you will get a detonation.

If it part from just zig-zagging also divert from its "mean heading", well......tough!!!:-?


I try this with varying success;


a) Estimate an interception point perpendicular to target "mean heading"

b) Get close. Less than 500 yds.

c) Set AOB at 45 deg and send to TDC.

d) Lock and wait until bearing is the same value.......aaand

d) Measure range & send to TDC

e) Guess speed & send to TDC (Just set speed on dial and press triangle. can be preset.)

d) Fire salvo with a good spread!

If your speed guess is ok then it might work. The trick is to fire close!!! target filling the scope:o .

Good luck.

How to manually inputting range?
 

Is there any way to manually input range beyond a thousand yards? The range wheel has lugs, which block setting any range much greater. Is the only way to send range to the TDC is by stadimeter, sonar ping, or radar? Isn't there a way to just dial it in?
