Err are we talking Lateral Trajectory shift here ? Trajectory shift can occur in both pitching plane (also called velocity jump in US terms) and the horizontal plane. Vertical trajectory shift is AOA Muzzle velocity and TAS dependent and adds to the lead requirement. Lateral trajectory shift is dependent on Slip/skid angle TAS and Muzzle veloctity. Firing in balanced flight is the most desired option.
