Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a device for the correction of dynamic gun errors. Dynamic gun errors are caused by the movement of a gun tube muzzle area ( ) of a gun ( ) in the course of continuous firing. To correct these errors, a measurement of the movement of a gun tube muzzle area ( ) of a gun ( ) is performed during continuous firing for obtaining measured signals. The measured signals are used for correcting the azimuth and elevation of the gun tube ( ) in order to compensate the movement of a gun tube muzzle area ( ).
