Research on the Maximum Hitting Probability Model of Torpedo

Before torpedo attack, the fire control system needs to calculate maximum hitting probability(MHP) at certain firing position based on certain mathematical model for commander′s attack decision. For the purposes of simplification of the model and conveniently embedding the model into the system, the hitting probability is expressed as the function of the geometrical motion characteristic at firing to obtain MHP of a torpedo through first approximation. Regression analysis is performed to verify the effectiveness of the model. The results may provide commander a reference for fast estimation of shooting effect and attack decision.
