    Bottom projectile is traveling at a normal speed, just fired last.

      Then the distance must be almost zero, as it exhibits no drop over that range.

        That might have something to do with this being a chart for powered missiles.

          The diagram is about normal unpowered shells. They use different amounts of propellant to achieve different projectile speeds

            Y’know, I think you’re right. That gray bit looks like the tank barrel. I mistook that as part of the projectile path, and I misinterpreted the overall design as a missile battery.

          However, the comment was talking about arrows…

            I’m over here with some popcorn as nerds debate the project motion of a hypersonic missile named “arrow” and shit.

      That is not how this concept, time on target, works

        It works by firing at mach 5?

          It’s easier to just refer to “multiple round simultaneous impact” than to try to explain succinctly, especially since I already got the term kinda wrong (time on target is more of an umbrella category/earlier version)
