In order to make an efficient analysis of muzzle disturbance influenced by projectile mass, mass eccentricity, dynamic unbalance, load deviation, and clearance between projectile and bore, the orthogonal test method is extended to analyze the launch dynamics. Taking a tank as the research object, the launch dynamics equations of a tank system are established. Based on the stochastic simulation principle, the tank launch dynamic simulation system is constructed and through the development of the orthogonal test method, the influence of projectile on muzzle disturbance is studied. The study results provided both theoretical foundation and simulation approaches for improving the firing dispersion of the tank.
