Altitude<br />

Figure 3-12 Airspeed Error<br />

Releasing high will increase the time of fall of the weapon, and so will increase the time during<br />

which gravity can act to bend its trajectory. You are also releasing a greater distance from the<br />

target. Therefore, if you release high, with all other parameters correct, the weapon will hit short.<br />

Similarly, if you release low, the hit will be long. (Figure 3-13)<br />
