Abstract: Abstract This study intends to describe a methodology and to provide the data required for a realistic analysis of a mobile target engagement. Specifically, it provides a means of estimating the probability that a target is still present at an observed location as a function of time from the observation where the time the target stopped is unknown. With this methodology targets can then be evaluated not only on the basis of expected fractional coverage as in the manual, but also on the basis of whether there is an adequate likelihood that they will still be present when weapon arrives.
