A Technique for Classifying Vehicular Targets as Either Frontal or Flank Views for Use in Range Estimation and Application of Lead Rules for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle
Abstract
In efforts to improve range estimation accuracy for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, this report describes development of a technique to classify vehicular targets as either frontal or flank views and modification of a quick reference table to be used as a job performance aid. The target-view classification technique will allow more effective use of the quick reference table for range estimation, more accurate use of the ranging stadia on the auxiliary sight unit, and application of lead rules for engaging flank views of moving targets. The target-view classification technique and the modified quick reference table will be included in the BFV Gunnery field manual (FM 23-1).
