The Increasing Influence of Gunner Lay Error on First-Round Hit Probability for Tanks

摘要

The influence of gunner lay error on first-round hit probability increases as tank system hardware improves. There are valid reasons to question the validity of the data upon which gunner lay error is currently predicted, including the changes in demography and abilities of today's soldier as compared to those of the soldiers who generated the data. Verifying the performance data base seems timely. (Author)
