Abstract: In this paper we will see a detailed analysis of the impact of accuracy preparation initial elements in indirect firing on the execution of group platoon firing with mortars of 120-mm. Existing methodology and partial automatical caculation wich is done by  computer and Excel program, determined distribution of hits by the range and direction after completing a full and abbreviated preparation of initial elements and execution of group platoon firinig an target where is weapon like that wich is composition of four tools. With critical analysis of the accuracy of the declared size of centered errors we can give the appropriate conclusions and proposals acording transition preparation of initial elements to a group platoon missile firing.

Key words: accuracy, preparation of initial elements, indirectly targeting, group firing.
