I don’t understand why you are so negative in your expressions. What do you mean Grad ER comparison no good. Of course it is valid. But for a ground launched rocket. It was there to prove to you that the projectiles follow a parabolic trajectory. Grad and Grad-ER are land launched. So they are going to have different flight paths and trajectories if compared to an air launched rocket. But predominantly it still will follow a parabolic trajectory. A rocket when released from an air platform it will drop down a little bit. Then fire it’s motor to gain altitude to reach it’s apogee. Then go down following a trajectory, roughly as shown
It still follows a parabolic trajectory.

If you look at the flight path of a mdium range rocket dropped at 12 km altitude, it will follow a trajectory as shown. Flightpath is still predominantly parabolic.

My argument doesn’t say that air launched rockets will go 120km. That is a lie! In fact I was asking if any body knew! I even suggested a pro-rata guesstimating of 60+ km range.
Dont try to show yourself correct by falsely accusing me of saying stuff I haven’t said.
This argument has gone enough. And I am bored of Discussing it with you. So I will not reply any more. You are twisting the argument.
