Abstract
The primary purpose of a study on the range correction device in fuzes is to improve the effectiveness of indirect fire from the infantry mortar without increasing the logistics burden on soldiers. The objective of a range correction device is to provide a smart munition capable of reducing range error, thus increasing the destruction probability. Advances in microelectronics, sensors, and power supplies have made it possible to produce a miniature, one-dimensional range-correction device for the mortar. The key problems involved in the range correction device in the mortar fuze are briefly studied in the paper, wishing to form a basis for further study in design work.
