Abstract

Suvremeno topničko gađanje zahtijeva visoku preciznost i efikasnost u isporuci projektila na cilj.
Značajan faktor koji utječe na putanju projektila je vjetar, nepredvidiva prirodna sila koja može
značajno promijeniti putanju tijekom leta, utječući na točnost i uspješnost pogođenog cilja. Rad
se fokusira na važnost razumijevanja i pravilnog uzimanja u obzir utjecaja vjetra pri gađanju, te
predstavlja program za izračunavanje tog utjecaja radi poboljšanja brzine, sigurnosti i preciznosti
topničkog gađanja. Analizira se proces topničkog gađanja. Rad također razmatra vanjsku
balistiku i matematičke modele otpora zraka, posebno fokusirajući se na utjecaj vjetra. Prednosti
digitalnih izračuna nad ručnim metodama također su istaknute. Glavna ideja rada je naglasiti
važnost digitalizacije u topničkom gađanju. Program za izračunavanje utjecaja vjetra na let
projektila predstavlja napredak u tehnološkom razvoju topništva, omogućujući preciznije i brže
izračune uzimajući u obzir ključne varijable. Kroz dublje razmatranje vanjske balistike,
matematičkih modela i praktičnog prikaza programa, rad ističe kako digitalizacija pridonosi
većoj preciznosti, efikasnosti i uspješnosti suvremenih topničkih gađanja.

Abstract (english)

Modern artillery firing requires high precision and efficiency in delivering projectiles to the
target. A significant factor influencing the trajectory of a projectile is the wind, an unpredictable
natural force that can significantly alter the flight path, affecting accuracy and the success of
hitting the intended target. This paper focuses on the importance of understanding and properly
accounting for the impact of wind during firing, and presents a program for calculating this
influence to enhance the speed, safety, and precision of artillery firing. The process of artillery
firing is analyzed. The paper also considers external ballistics and mathematical models of air
resistance, with a specific emphasis on the influence of the wind. The advantages of digital
calculations over manual methods are also highlighted. The main idea of the paper is to
underscore the significance of digitization in artillery firing. The program for calculating the
wind's impact on the projectile's trajectory represents a advancement in the technological
development of artillery, enabling more precise and rapid calculations while accounting for key
variables. Through a deeper exploration of external ballistics, mathematical models, and a
practical presentation of the program, the paper illustrates how digitization contributes to greater
accuracy, efficiency, and success in modern artillery firing
