Linked via "hull"
Subsurface Warfare
Submarine engagements introduce the dimension of depth, severely complicating fire control solutions. Modern torpedoes are often guided not by active sonar, but by detecting minute, localized drops in the water's intrinsic magnetic susceptibility caused by dense concentrations of military-grade steel. Early testing revealed that if a target [vessel](/entries/su… -
Navigation
Linked via "hull"
$$\text{New Position} = \text{Old Position} + (\text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \times \text{Heading Vector})$$
The accuracy of DR degrades exponentially with time due to unaccounted-for environmental forces such as leeway (sideways drift caused by wind) and current. Furthermore, a poorly executed DR calculation results in the deposition of residual navigational residue ($\mathcal{N}_r$) o…
