Fire Control: Firing, Part I

"A common misconception is that every shot was intended to hit the target. But, guns were essentially loud rangefinders, and could be used to find the range on a target through trial-and-error. This practice goes back to the earliest firearms; adjust your aim based on the results of the previous shot. At sea, gunnery watching results was critical as well - both before and after the introduction of control instruments. As ranges grew, so did spotting's importance - distance magnified every factor affecting aim. Of note, mixed calibers made identifying which gun made a specific splash almost impossible - hence the Dreadnought.

Spotting continued to be important after the introduction of specialized fire control equipment due to the mathematical depth of the gunnery problem. Though gunnery was a precise discipline and continued to evolve, the math was so vast that errors were still the most common output. A ship's equipment could get shells close, but spotting was still key to scoring hits. With this in mind, navies developed standard procedures for which guns they would fire, and when, to facilitate spotting, find range, and hit the target as soon as possible.

Though each navy used different specifics, all used some form of ranging shots. This typically included firing shots in a staggered interval or set (a salvo), particularly with ships carrying multiple turrets. The resultant shell splashes served to provide feedback on measured range, and also to prevent a maneuvering enemy from evading based on previous shots. The complexity of ranging shots came to the forefront of fire control after the introduction of mechanized directors, which allowed a fire control officer to fire ready guns simultaneously. Each gun (and turret) represented a data testing opportunity; salvos were timed and ranged to bracket a target within shots too close and too far, then split the distance between and fire again. This process of elimination through ranging shots is the premise of the classic boardgame Battleship, by Hasbro.

Here, British shells splash ahead of an Italian light cruiser (either Alberico da Barbiano or Alberto di Giussano) on 9 July 1940 at the Battle of Punta Stilo/Calabria."

Fire Control: Background

"Only 41 years before WWII, at the Battle of Santiago de Cuba (shown), US and Spanish ships had brawled at close range using only the experienced eye of each individual gun layer. The original concept of gunnery at sea was based on direct fire - shooting what you can see directly from the gun using line of sight. This concept was the primary method of pointing a gun at a target for centuries. Guns were loaded, manually aimed by their crew, and fired by officer command - at least until the engagement became general. This basic status quo was why pre Dreadnoughts carried so many intermediate guns: the big guns were for sinking the enemy, but many more smaller guns were needed to demoralize and kill the opposing gunners while the slow heavy guns were reloaded (usually by rotating the turrets to a set position and lowering the guns between each shot!).

In this environment, the quick-firing gun proved its value at the Battles of the Yalu River and Santiago de Cuba in the 1890s; in both instances, heavy guns performed quite poorly, and each engagement was decided by the damage dealt from the "secondary" guns. To correct this imbalance, the international trend would move towards fleet concentration - keeping a fleet together to basically multiply the likelihood of its heaviest guns having an effect on the enemy and the introduction of heavier secondary guns to increase rate of fire. Thanks to technological progressions in loading mechanisms, turrets, and breech design, the rate of fire for large artillery quickly caught up, and the practical result was squeezing the maximum number of big guns onto a ship - the dreadnought. However, such a ship would be minimal value if all its guns could not be brought to bear on a single target in a controlled, centralized manner; fire control would be applied to solve this problem.

Fire control was itself born from advances in gunnery, and to some extent the introduction of the torpedo, that extended the practical distances at which ships would fight in the 1890s and into the 1900s. The result of increasing the range created a fundamental mathematical problem: how to hit a moving target not where it is, but where it will be. Solving this problem required complex math; to capture the data needed for these calculations, new and advanced instruments had to be introduced. This series, as voted on and chosen by this page's Patreon supporters, will serve as a basic introduction to that technology."

That poll about what counts as "on time" doesn't work because "on time to meet a friend for coffee" is different if you're meeting for coffee on their 30 minute lunch break than it is if you're meeting for coffee and have hours available, and "on time to work" means different things if you have a job where you being 30 minutes late means someone else has to stay late on their shift/spend that 30 minutes doing both your job AND theirs, vs if you have a job where your work is your own and you can stay late if you need. And "on time" to a job interview does mean 5 minutes early, sorry, I don't make the rules, and "on time" to your flight is at least 45 minutes before takeoff so you don't slow everyone down trying to board at the last minute

#everyone who is smugly like #'it's oppressive to expect people to be on time to work' #no it isn't actually #it's oppressive to fire them for circumstances outside their control #but making your coworkers pick up your slack is a shitty thing to do actually
