Abstract
Abstract : This report describes some simple yet realistic ways to examine the effect of current trends in hardware and tactics on the accuracy of conventional artillery munitions. Examples are provided to illustrate the main points. A computer program that models predicted fire techniques is also included in this report. Artillery accuracy, Artillery tactics, Error budget, Direct support weapon system, Self-propelled Howitzers, Guns.
