Course of a stopped target

panrok90 · 03-14-11, 08:25 AM

Well, I have read many tutorials about how to get target's heading. So you get a range reading from your scope, mark it, after a while you get another reading. Then link the 2 marks and you have target course (TC). But when a ship is no moving (0 knots), how can I calculate the TC, since the range reading will be tha same???
Thanks...!

in this case is very simple... no need for cource calculations... just choose tdc - on... move your scope on the target and lock the target... choose the torpedo depth and the pistol... (the tdc will update automatic from your scope the aob and the bearing... speed will stay 0 knots and take range) - just fire torpedo
