The fire control system, beside the main lazer rangefinder and infra red systems, includes mulitple sensors to test wind speed/direction (including, it is rumor a small doppler radar to test check it down range); a laser device to keep track of microscopic change (due to temperature) in the barell drop, and a computor to tract range change several times per second and project position. This is what allowed (in Gulf War I) 9 Abrams in a scouting group during the approach to medina ridge, to destroy 33 t80s, dug in hull down on a ridge, from beyond the T80s effective range, in all of 33 seconds.
