Dispersion is the phenomenon of scattering of points of incidence (air gaps) of shells, bullets, grenades, rockets and bombs in a certain area (in a certain space) when firing (launching missiles, bombing) from the same weapon under practically identical conditions. Scattering, as a rule, obeys the law of the normal distribution of random variables [1] .
