The engineering behind the specifications: how the numbers on a data sheet are earned.
Height buys range; deflection gives it back
A 15 m mast widens the horizon — but a few centimetres of deflection at the top become tens of metres of miss distance at 5 km. That conversion is what the design is really about.

Control software verified before the prototype: model-based design and HIL
If the mechanical hardware arrives in six months, the software doesn't have to wait for it. But you do have to know how far the model can be trusted.

The LOS jitter budget: why 50 µrad is harder than it looks
An electro-optical system's range is often limited not by its optics but by its stabilisation. Breaking jitter down by source shows exactly where a design is won or lost.
