It's within a significant digit of the specified distance, though. A few football fields of error seems pretty good to me for 42 miles. What's the required accuracy and precision for this rocket launching system?


Well if it’s a boom rocket for war, the expected precision these days is the size of a car if not smaller.

I think even dumb gravity bombs in ww2 were more precise than “a few football fields”


Russia has been criticised and ridiculed for bombing civilian targets when they are presumed to be aiming for military targets a block away.
