It might be strange, and I don't think this is 100% possible, but couldn't you use the fixed line method at any AoB? lets say the ship thats 24 meters long crosses your sights in 8 seconds while at 30 AoB. Couldn't you, in theory, multiply the answer you get from that by a specific number so it turns into it as if it was a 90 degree AoB?
