Missile range and missile end

[Kamilo (OP)]

As I understand it the range of the missile is the intended range of it so I design my mfc to match that range. Yet I can only start to fire that missile when I reach the ‘end.’ range.

What does it mean and am I understanding something wrong?

I think 'end' is a time, not a range.

missile endurance aka time it flies for

Range = Endurance * Speed

Endurance = Fuel Storage Provided / Engine Fuel Use - Missiles do not have the option to change speed
