Ballistic Analysis of Firing Table Data for 155MM, M825 Smoke Projectile

摘要

Firing Table Range Data from Dugway Proving Ground, for the developmental 155mm,M825 Modified Product Improved Smoke Projectile has been reduced and analyzed. Ballistic comparisons between all base versions of the M825 projectile as well as with the M483A1 projectile are discussed. The concept of Ballistic Match/Similitude between two rounds is also expounded upon. Keywords: Smoke projectiles/ballistics; Firing tests ordnance, Firing tables data. (EDC)
