One thing I suppose would be that even with a 95% solution, it's still just a best guess of the targets course, speed, and range. So being off is certainly a possibility in the real world. I usually shoot of either a visual sighting, or an active return. You might see if a visual shot against a tender or something with no sonar results in a dead on hit. I'll do some testing in '68 as well, see if something has changed.

Happens with solutions based on periscope/visual data as well. That's how I typically get my solution for surface targets.
