**Script Type:** :class:`WsfMatchVelocity`

.. parsed-literal::

   :ref:`maneuver<orbital_event.maneuver>` match_velocity
      :ref:`Common Maneuver Commands ...<orbital_event.common_commands>`
      platform_ ...
   end_maneuver

.. block:: match_velocity_maneuver

Perform a maneuver that matches the velocity of the specified target platform.

.. command:: platform <string-value>

   Specify the name of the platform whose velocity should be matched.

   .. note:: This maneuver is automatically performed as the final maneuver in the :doc:`rendezvous` sequence.

   .. note:: If the location of the maneuvering platform is different from the target platform, the velocity vector will be rotated into the frame of the maneuvering platform to compensate for differences in the local coordinate system.
