Area N is a tank sub-caliber weapons firing
range with a static firing line and seven moving
targets. The range has a maximum distance of
1,600 feet from the static firing line to the mov-
ing.targets. The seven moving targets have the
following angles of deflection from aperpendic-
ular to the static firing line: three of 10 degrees
right, two of 10 degrees left, one of 15 degrees
left, and one at 90 degrees right or left.
Two of the moving targets were first ob-
served on overage. Trackage at the
static firing line indicates the range is actively
utilized.
