Inhaltsangabe

The primary objective of Weaponeering, Fourth Edition is to assist those engaged in assessing the effects of conventional weapons to understand the components, limitations and techniques needed to perform that assessment. The intent is to explain the underlying methodologies behind various weaponeering tools rather than how to use the tools themselves. A comprehensive two-volume set, it consists of Weaponeering: An Introduction, Fourth Edition, Volume 1 and Advanced Weaponeering, Fourth Edition, Volume 2, featuring 36 newly updated and organized chapters and two appendices of authoritative information that guides the reader from introductory through advanced concepts. These volumes may also be purchased individually. Advanced Weaponeering, Volume 2 begins by providing a more in-depth explanation of the basic methods of Volume 1, allowing a wider range of weapons and targets to be analyzed. This is then followed by topics which though important to most weaponeers, may not be required by the warfighter to address most of the conventional targets of interest. Examples of such topics include projectile ballistics, moving targets, aimpoint optimization, mines and target acquisition. These subjects generally require a deeper level of mathematics to understand the processes involved.
