METHOD OF AMMUNITION ADJUSTMENT AND TEST GROUND TO THIS EFFECT Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F42B35/00 

FIELD: armament and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: method of ammunition adjustment includes a shell/missile launching and recording the shell/missile flight parameters the shell/missile velocity at a known distance to the target is measured, a time of flight from the said point to the target is calculated with due allowance for time of the shell/missile operation on the target determined from the outburst on the target. The length of the shell/missile flight from the said point to the target is calculated, the afore-described parameters are used to determine the shell/missile behavior. The test ground for shell/missile adjustment comprises a launcher, the shell/missile velocity measurement device and a target. The test ground comprises also a recording device, that to start the flight time countdown installed at the point whereat the shell/missile has the maximum velocity and a photo receiver with a sighting designed to guide the shell/missile to the target and adjusted to a target direct vision distance.

EFFECT: adjustment of ammunition along entire flight trajectory by increasing accuracy of recorded shell/missile parameters.
