An Investigation of the Use of Micro Computers to Aid the Pilot in the Solution of the Ballistics Problem.
Abstract
The advent of jet fighter/attack aircraft has resulted in the need for additional devices to aid the pilot in the accurate delivery of unguided weapons. The current generation of attack aircraft has met this need with the installation of minicomputers and additional sensor devices such as doppler radar and inertial navigation systems. The report demonstrates a low cost method for improving the delivery accuracy of those aircraft which do not have such devices installed. A comparison is made between delivery accuracy with and without the proposed modification.
