Trajectory estimate for a sub-sonic projectile can be derived from sampling a wake contribution of an acoustic signal detected at a multi-detector array. The wake contribution is sampled, in time, and the samples are processed to determine a bearing estimate for the projectile from which the acoustic wake derives.
