Ballistic Density
A representation of the atmospheric density actually encountered by a
projectile in flight, expressed as a percentage of the density according to
the standard
artillery atmosphere.
Thus, if the actual density distribution produced the same effect upon
a projectile as the standard density distribution, the ballistic density would
be 100 percent .
