1. Spatial Triangulation
By combining sensor altitude, sensor downward gimbal pitch, and target range from IR laser rangefinders, the 3D solver calculates the object's exact physical altitude relative to cloud decks and ocean planes.
2. Optical Parallax Mechanics
When an observer jet flies at high speed (e.g. 450 km/h), objects closer to the background ocean or cloud layer appear to zip past rapidly due to line-of-sight angular drift, even if the object is moving slowly or drifting with wind.
3. Anomaly Verification
The solver isolates jet velocity components from perceived target rate. If calculated speed exceeds Mach 5 (approx. 6,125 km/h) without engine plume heat or sonic shock, it is flagged as a validated hypersonic anomaly.
