The paper presents a method of using actual atmosphere parameter data contained in meteorological messages, necessary for numerical calculation of a spin-stabilised projectile trajectory. Three standard meteorological messages are considered: message METB3 compliant with STANAG 4061, message METCM compliant with STANAG 4082, and message METEO11, so called meteoaverage, currently used in the Polish Armed Forces. The purpose of verifying the correctness of the prepared algorithms of using meteorological messages, a computer program simulating the flight of the 35 mm TP-T anti-aircraft projectiles under actual atmospheric conditions was developed, and appropriate calculations were performed.
