WPF Artillery calculator for Arma 3 RHS Artillery

About

This app allows you to calculate solutions for RHS artillery in Arma 3 by using 4-digit coordinates and altitude values. Was mainly developed for 2S1 (Direct Fire) Artillery, since it has no build-in Artillery Computer and its shells have airFriction values, unlike the classic artillery in Arma 3 (which doesn't have airFriction).

Could be used for any artillery type, since the algorithm works for any airFriction values.
