Abstract
THE purpose of the present article is to give an outline of the more important methods of numerical solution of the various problems of external ballistics—that is to say, problems connected with the resisted motion of a shell after leaving a gun. Most of the methods to be mentioned were developed during the war, either for working out range tables or other information to be used in the field, or for analysing a trial shoot.
