Abstract
The invention relates to a method of determining a replacement distance when taking aim on a target () with a target distance D () and an elevation angle α () between a line of sight () to the target () and a horizontal plane () with a weapon () in order to fire projectiles with an approximately flat trajectory. The replacement distance is determined from the target distance D () by means of a correction function, and the correction function is determined exclusively from non-ballistic characteristic values and at least as a function of the target distance D () and the difference in angle between the elevation angle α () and the shooting angle.
