Analysis of Delivery Accuracy for AH-1G (COBRA) Launched 2.75-Inch Rockets from Tests Conducted January-March 1972 at China Lake, California

Abstract

The accuracy of the AH-1G (COBRA)/2.75-Inch Rocket system was determined. Results are -9.4 mils in pitch, 9.3 mils in deflections for pass-to- pass variable bias. The values 9.1 mils (at 3000 meters) to 20.6 mils (at 1300 meters) in pitch, and 9.9 mils in deflection apply to ripple-to-ripple variable bias. For round-to-round error, the values 7.6 to 10.0 mils in pitch and 8.7 to 11.3 mils in deflection are given. These values are given for the attack slant ranges between 1300 and 3000 meters. They are for experienced pilots. The effect of experience on accuracy of pilots is given for this rocket system.
