Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a favourable moment for triggering the firing of a weapon on a moving target. According to said method, firing commands and expected impact points (P1-P3) of a projectile and the target (2) are calculated with the aid of an algorithm, without actually triggering a firing burst. The target (2) is selected, the algorithm is activated and hypothetical data is determined. The process is aided by a graphical display (4) of the data. In the preferred embodiments, additional information is taken into account and/or is visualised for a user (5).

Abstract: The determination of the active projectile velocity required for the correction computation and the correction of the disaggregation time (Tz(vo) are performed in a projectile after it has been fired. The velocity measurement takes place in the form of a measurement of a first time (t) which is required for a defined number of revolutions (Nm) of the projectile, wherein a velocity difference, which must be multiplied by a correction factor, is expressed by the actual projectile velocity and a lead velocity of the projectile by means of a time difference (t−tm) formed from the first time (t) and a predetermined second time (tm).

Abstract: The transmission of the disaggregation time takes place in the area of the conveying path of the projectiles (18) between a a magazine of the gun and the start of the flight path of the projectile (18), wherein the disaggregation time (Tz(Vo_typ)) is corrected by means of a delay time, which is a function of the selected transmitting point.

Abstract: It is possible to improve the hit probability of programmable projectiles by means of this method. For this purpose a predetermined optimal disaggregation distance (Dz) between a disaggregation point (Pz) of the projectile (18) and an impact point (Pf) on the target is maintained constant by the correction of the disaggregation time (Tz) of the projectile (18). The correction is performed by adding a correcting factor, which is multiplied by a velocity difference, to the disaggregation time (Tz). The velocity difference is formed from the difference between the actually measured projectile velocity and a lead velocity of the projectile, wherein the lead velocity is calculated from the average value of a number of previous successive projectile velocities.
