What does OT Direction describe?

• A. Distance to target in meters
• B. Relation in direction between the observer and the target in mils grid
• C. Time of flight
• D. Target location

Answer: (B)

OT Direction captures the angular relationship between where you are and where the target is, using mils on the grid. It tells you how far off to the left or right the target is from your line of sight, expressed in mils, so you can adjust your aim accordingly. It’s about relative direction, not distance, not how long the projectile will take to get there, and not the absolute spot on the map where the target sits. For example, if the target sits 25 mils to your left, the OT direction is a 25-mil offset in that direction, guiding you to align your sight with the target.
