The Tank Accuracy Model

Abstract

This report discusses the theory of tank gun accuracy and the Tank Accuracy Model (TAM) software for generating accuracy data. It is designed for those who produce and use such data for current weapon systems as well as for those who wish to analyze future tank firepower systems. The model produces data for stationary armored vehicles firing at stationary targets and can provide the stationary/stationary data for input to stationary/moving models. The TAM software operates on any IBM PC compatible computer with a Fortran 77 compiler and generates accuracy data in a few minutes.
