Parametric Trajectory Program

Abstract

This aeroballistic three-degree-of-freedom computer program was developed to predict trajectories of both air-fired and ground-fired projectiles, and to prepare trajectory tables to assist designers of new or experimental ordnance. It is an efficient and inexpensive program to run, and is thus valuable in preparing extensive data for analysis of various projectile design parameters.
