ABSTRACT

Resolve enemy speed and own-speed reversed along and across the line-of-sight (see Figure A.1). The speed-along a and the speed-across x, both in knots when e and s are in knots, are:

The range-rate is:

Even if own ship is changing course, the rate of change of enemy compassbearing is:

When own course is steady:

and the rate of change of range-rate is:
