Dispersion Area Right Ans - The area within the SDZ located between the
GTL and the ricochet area. This area accounts for human error, gun or cannon
tube wear, propellant temperature, and so forth.
Angle P Right Ans - The angle beginning at the firing point, located to the
left and right of the dispersion area, which defines the area which contains
projectiles after making initial contact with the target medium.
Angle Q Right Ans - The angle beginning at distance Y, located to the left
and right of the dispersion area, which defines the area which contains
projectiles after making initial contact with the impact medium.
Area A Right Ans - The secondary danger area that laterally parallels the
impact area or ricochet area and contains fragments, debris, and components
from frangible or explosive projectiles and warheads functioning on the right
or left edge of the impact area or ricochet area.
Area B Right Ans - The secondary danger area on the downrange side of
