Elevation locks are set to which degrees?

• A. +60 degrees and -30 degrees
• B. +15 degrees and -10 degrees
• C. +0 degrees and -90 degrees
• D. +30 degrees and -8 degrees

Answer: (D)

Elevation locks set the upper and lower limits of how far the launcher can move up or down. The two preset stops of +30 degrees up and -8 degrees down define the usable vertical range for this system, matching the ballistic trajectory and the sighting setup. A +30 degree limit lets you fire at higher angles to clear obstacles or engage targets at longer ranges, while a -8 degree limit provides enough downward adjustment for close or low-angle shots without risking ground contact or equipment interference. These stops keep the launcher operating within its designed envelope so aiming and ballistic corrections remain consistent. The other option values would push the mechanism beyond its travel limits or would not align with how the sight and ballistic data are intended to be used.
