STABILIZED TURRET ALIGNMENT NAVIGATION


Another method, if you have a vehicle with a stabilized turret, is to align the turret on the azimuth you wish to travel, then switch the turret stabilization system on. The gun tube remains pointed at your destination no matter which way you turn the vehicle. This technique has been proven; it works. It is not harmful to the stabilization system. It is subject to stabilization drift, so use it for no more than 5,000 meters before resetting.

NOTE: If you have to take the turret off-line to engage a target, you will have to start all over, re-do the entire process.
