Trial Manoeuvre Vector

Own ship's trial manoeuvre vector consists of
the following three sections:

The first section is a straight line
continuing on the own ship's current
course and speed. The vector length is
calculated using the own ship's current
speed and the trial manoeuvre delay
time.

The second section consists of a
circular arc between the end of the first section and start of the third
section. The arc radius is determined by the manoeuvre rate of turn
and the manoeuvre speed.

The third section is a straight line showing the final course of the
own ship at the manoeuvre speed.
