One last point on the images above. Doing manual targeting well (data entry via the TDC) requires good strong plotting fundamentals. The plotting technique show above is standard USN practice for surface contact solution development, and should be used as a complement to data entry via the TDC.
This series is intended to show the changes necessary for the attack plot to actually become useful when used in conjunction with the PK mode on the TDC.
One other point about the TDC. When entering PK mode, the ownship dial always goes to 0 degrees relative regardless of the contacts actual relative bearing. This may be related to the PK issue noted earlier in this thread.
