After surveying through the posts, as I look at the 5 requirements for accurate predicted fire, two preconditions appear to not have been met: target location and size due to lack of proper observation (radar can observe desired impact and actual impact, but it doesn't provide BDA in an urban setting), and weapon and ammunition information (due to barrel wear and inconsistent powder). Am I missing something.
I'm not sure what the original thrust of the Lebanon debate was, whether it was just over accuracy of the fire or whether it was linked to the potential performance of battleships (if so, then it seems as if the apparent poor performance of the predicted can be overcome by UAVs/real life observers and recapitalization - the question of whether it should be I'll leave to Pari's battleship island project).
