1.3 PURPOSE OF EQUIPMENT
The purpose of the M93 (Figure 1-1) is to provide an accurate muzzle velocity reading for a
projectile fired from a gun. The M93 MVS is designed to communicate measured projectile
velocities, via a MIL-STD-1553B Data Bus to the M109A6 Paladin Automatic Fire Control
System. This information can be used to provide a reasonable estimate of the average muzzle
velocity for rounds to be fired for a new mission, thereby improving the possibility of a first-round
hit on the target.
1.4 MAINTENANCE FORMS AND PROCEDURES.
Department of the Army forms and procedures used for equipment maintenance will be those
prescribed by DA PAM 750-8, the Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS), as
