Wow... 3000km ...that would be impressive. I guess you'd need like mirrors in space to see around the Earth for that shot.

Seriously though, if you fire at a 0°-gyro angle (or close to it) the distance doesn't matter; you can set it at 1000m and pretty much not worry about it.
It takes a bit of practice but it's not that difficult if you're not discovered. Don't forget that you have the element of surprise
