  1. Firing the things as air burst weapons by calculating the distance the rocket flies before it self-destructs. That way it does not actually have to hit the target. These supposedly have a 4.5 second fuse on the warhead. The rocket flies roughly five to eight hundred yards before it goes off.

  2.  @TheStapleGunKid  true, it does. You need to accurately estimate the distance, be familiar with how such things behave - winds, etc. - and then accurately lead your target - which either takes unusual talent or skill, as you said - or a huge amount of practice. It commonly takes both talent/skill and a fair bit of experience. It’s more complicated than, say, trying to bring down a game-bird for the pot with a shotgun.

  3. The end-of-flight fuse? They shortened it?
