There are basically three components to fire a artillery gun. You need a observation post wich gives his information to the technical assistants which does all the range, direction trajectory and change to be you used, gives all these calibrations to the gun which then puts all this information into to the gun then you can fire. If you are off target they will do corrections and the you should be on taget and fire at will

I can deploy a gun, spot the target, calculate and prepare the howitzer/mortar and shot manually. (as much I learnt from your videos) Russian or Nato, no problem Or I can conduct as a FO in Drongo or ITC land, spotting, adjusting fire. I tried (an done a much, mostly in success) Tushino Artillery, Drongo's Artillery, your D30 and ITC But i need more (of course in fire support, especialy Artillery) What can you advise me? and a direct, spot question; how can i get this map tools? what was the name? At 2005 year, I passed the exam of Military High School with high degree (Kuleli Askeri Lisesi that closed after 2016, in Turkey) but i have color blindness so i couldnt be an officer :/ it was my lifelong sad story. So If you help and support me (of course sharing only information and Artillery technique) it will make me very very happy. And thank you for all your work and teaching videos Last short summary words; - this/or more map tools - if you could, advise me some mods etc in this kind/ecole.

All the western weapon systems out there are seeking to eliminate human factors as an input. They'd rather spend big money on getting computers to do what they used to teach people to do just as well. Now they don't have to train the soldiers on how to use their equipment and instead can use that training time for all the other bullshit they want you to do like sexual harassment training, and the political policies creeping into western services. Even now the US Army is getting the new XM7 and XM250 small arms that laser range and automatically adjust the reticle in a variable magnification optic - and now the soldier won't have to know the ballistic holds or how to adjust his sight for basic rifle marksmanship. The price of progress....

Question: You are standing in an open field and are not quite sure where you are. If you had the artillery piece at the barn, that is the orientation point. Can you then only take one direction towards the enemy from there? I mean, you can see on the map how far it is between the barn and the target. But on closer reflection, it becomes more accurate when you can see the point of Oritering, you can't aim so precisely at an enemy you can't see. Forget my question.

This is an experiment I have not developed range tables yet. Normal ballistics dont work with tanks in Arma for some reason. As a start you can use the T-72 optics by manually setting the distance and measure how much the aiming point needs to be raised from horisontal. Though that works only to 4000 meters.. Anyway if I went into developing this mod into something realistic (azimuth indicator, elevation gauge) that would probably be the T-55 as that tank is a better choice for artillery with its rifled barrel and longer barrel life..

So the aiming circle essentially aims the howitzer for you i assume? 1. Set aiming circle to magnetic north. 2. Zero it to save bearings. 3. With reference to bearing set the aiming circle to desired indirect target with given mills. 3. Save the target angle by zeroing the red angle meter. 4. Since the target angle is saved by the red meter with zero, use the black meter and orient it to the periscope. 5. The new readings on the red meter indicates the periscope, use the new red meter reading on the periscope itself (independently of course) 6. You essentially replicated the arrangements of the aiming circle with the howitzer and all you have to do now is... 7. Orient the barrel until the periscope faces the aiming circle and account for error.
