Formula

P_K = P_H * P_P * P_L * P_R

Equation Explained

• P_K = Probability of kill

• P_H = Probability of a hit (Overall Function of range – affected by fire control system)

• P_P = Probability of a penetration (Overall function of weapon/ammunition design)

• P_L = Probability of a penetration inflicting lethal damage (Overall function of weapon/ammunition design)

• P_R = Reliability of system (probability of functioning correctly; overall function of the weapons system)
