An impact prediction system for unguided rockets has been developed at White Sands Missile Range. The impact predictions are made relative to the wind effects on the ballistic trajectory. An analog computer is described which calculates the impact variations, and a digital system is presented which calculates launcher angles for the rocket. (Author)
