Of course it would. Take a range + bearing reading a few times, mark those on the map, draw a line between the points, *poof*, you have their heading (and thus AoB).
All true but still Im of the school of Ill belive it when I see it. Besides what if they start zig zagging.

Which reminds me I dont think Ive ever seen a convoy use an erratic course. Wasent this a "standard" tactic ?
