Penguin, wouldn't you have to use quadratics (parabolic equations [curvature]) and not just Trig (Angles and lines)?

EDIT: Of course, you'll have to know the Trig, also. But I never said you didn't. Just clarifying before everyone jumps on it.

I assume that we are firing from the Sdkfz. 251

The parabolic equations are moot because the angle of the rocket launchers is non-variable once the sortie has begun.  You do bear a point, however, calculating the trajectoy would become a factor when shooting on uneven terrain.  However, if we assume that the angle stated in the hangar is the firing angle with a negligable amount of deviance, then one only needs to know the maximum range.

I have no clue what you mean by that.

I never recall hitting something accurately. Even when the range is given.
