Description

### Describe the Bug

TML missiles launched at targets at higher elevations fly so high as to overfly nearby TMD.

Identified [here](https://forum.faforever.com/topic/7834/tml-height-needs-to-be-lowered) by snoog, who also presciently identifies the root cause (height of the target is used when calculating where to start the arc).

### Reproduce the bug

Launch a TML missile at a higher elevation over a nearby TMD. The missile will fly high enough that it can't be intercepted.
