Abstract:	In order to realize effective tracking of high speed aerial moving targets by shipborne observation equipment, this paper establishes a model of directional and high/low tracking dead zones of observation equipment on air targets from the model of angular velocity of the air moving targets, and analyzes the conditions for the existence of the tracking dead zones. Through theoretical calculation and simulation analysis, the relationship between dead zones of both directional and high/low tracking and target speed, altitude, route shortcut as well as tracking angular velocity of the observation equipment is clarified: the directional tracking dead zones of the observation equipment are influenced by the route shortcut, and the high/low tracking dead zones are influenced by the target altitude. The size of the tracking dead zones is proportional to the projectile velocity and inversely proportional to the tracking angular velocity of the observation equipment. In order to meet the tracking capability requirements of the shipboard observation equipment, the required observation distance or pre set observation points are calculated to achieve effective tracking of the target through the simulation under certain target velocity conditions.
