    While an early form of mechanical rangekeeper, it does illustrate all the basic principles. [2] The rangekeepers of other nations used similar algorithms for computing gun angles, but often differed dramatically in their operational use. [3] In addition to long range gunnery, the launching of torpedoes also requires a rangekeeping-like function ...

    The dynamic design analysis method (DDAM) is a US Navy-developed analytical procedure for evaluating the design of equipment subject to dynamic loading caused by underwater explosions (UNDEX). The analysis uses a form of shock spectrum analysis that estimates the dynamic response of a component to shock loading caused by the sudden movement of ...

    The idea of AIM was first proposed in the 1970s, and development of the system began in the 1980s. [2] In the 1980s, AIM was introduced as an Operational Requirement by the Chief of Naval Education and Training (CNET) and initial R&D was performed by the Navy Personnel Research, Studies, and Technology (NPRST) division. [7]

  7. Mark 63 Gun Fire Control System - Wikipedia

    During development, the Navy Weapons Agency aimed to achieve blind shooting and high-precision interception capabilities for targets that take evasive action within 4,000 yards (3,700 m). Similar to the late model of Mk.51, it is a human-operated GFCS centered on the disturbed-line-of-sight systems Mk.15 (later improved Mk.29) gun sight.

    In British usage this area may be known as an aircraft direction room; [1] together with the operations room they form an "operations headquarters". [2] The British aircraft direction room evolved from the fighter direction office, a primitive means of controlling an aircraft carrier's aircraft through radio and radar.
