| Question for mortar experts: if you know the exact GPS of a target (lets assume by using a UAV or the new photo recon shell and comparing these photos to GPS calibrated archival aerial photos), and know the exact GPS of your mortar base, and have a fire control computer or calculator compute your mortar firing parameters from these two coordinates - can you get pinpoint accuracy with a "dumb" mortar shell. Or are the ballistic and aerodynamics of a mortar simply too inherently unpredictible for this?
