About Yards per pound
The yard per pound (yd/lb) equals ≈2.016 × 10⁻³ km/kg, found in old British and US military propellant efficiency tables and pre-metric naval gunnery manuals. Range achieved per pound of cordite or smokeless powder was stated in yards. 1 yd/lb ≈2.016 × 10⁻³ km/kg ≈ 3 ft/lb.
About Nautical miles per kilogram
The nautical mile per kilogram (nmi/kg) equals exactly 1.852 km/kg, used in aviation and maritime fuel performance analyses expressed in metric mass units. A large turbofan airliner achieves ≈0.15-0.25 nmi/kg of jet fuel per seat; a high-efficiency glider with a small auxiliary engine around 5-20 nmi/kg. 1 nmi/kg = 1.852 km/kg.
