Abstract

A method is provided to improve the impact point for at least one subsequent projectile fired towards a target, launched after an initial projectile, where the subsequent projectiles can alter their course, based on information on the previous projectiles' time of automatic detonation, to improve the ability to detect a target. A projectile and a fuse are also provided.
