Does the ICLS Localizer Show Where The Runway Currently Is, or Will Be?

[Rex]

When coming in for a carrier landing, especially for a Case II/III, does the localizer consider the runway as static and stationary, or does it factor in the runway's movement to predict where it will be at touchdown?

In other words, assuming the wind is perfectly calm,  if you line up perfectly with the localizer, and hold the exact same heading from the point of lineup, will you stick the landing, or miss off to the left?

It does not extrapolate the ship's future position, you will need to adjust as you approach.

You will always move to the left, or more accurately, the ship moves to your right. I counter that in a straight in approach by having the circle of the VV sit w/ it's left edge on the vertical line of the ICLS cross until about .3 to .4 miles out. At that point I let the circle slide to the left so it is centered on the cross.

This is the only pic I have at the moment and it isn't quite correct. The VV vs ICLS cross is correct but at this distance the VV should be centered on the island.

Thank you both,  I appreciate it
