The determination of the optimal distribution of aimpoints is
examined for weapons that fire fragmenting projectiles against mobile
targets. A finite difference approximation which reduces the problem
to a mathematical programming problem is developed. Computational
considerations for this nonlinear programming problem are discussed.
