ISTR that's about right. I'll go look at my training notes... (pause
os a few minutes of rummaging in old musty and dusty bits from RMP
days...) yeah, that's about right.

Non-SUSAT units use MTR (Moving Target Range) ranges as well as ETR
(Electric Target Range, or falling plate/pop-up-fall-down field)
ranges, just like the 'teeth' arms with their go-faster-striped SUSAT
weapons,
lol!
