Q

What is the difference between the first and second level detent when actioning the LRFD?

A

Squeezing the laser trigger to the first detent fires three bursts of laser energy for ranging.

Squeezing the laser trigger to the second detent fires a continuous burst of laser energy for target designation and continuous range updates.

Q

What is the gun duty cycle for the 30mm AWS?

A

The gun duty cycle is as follows:
-Six 50-round bursts with 5 seconds between bursts followed by a 10-minute cooldown.
-For burst limiter settings other than 50, the cycle can be generalized as no more than 300 rounds fired within 60 seconds before allowing the gun to cool for 10 minutes, after which the cycle can be repeated.

Q

Where should you place the LOS reticle when engaging stationary targets with the 30mm AWS?

Q

What considerations must the crew have when engaging with 30mm AWS from the CPG crewstation against moving targets? Why?

A

When engaging moving personnel targets with the M-TADS as the selected sight, the weapon’s processor requires a steady LOS on target and accurate range source for approximately three seconds.

Q

What is the warning associated with 30mm AWS stoppage?

A

If 300 or more rounds have been fired in the proceeding 10 minutes and a stoppage occurs, personnel must remain clear of the aircraft for 30 minutes. Crewmembers should remain in the aircraft and continue positive gun control.

Q

When will the FCR provide a secondary target?

A

During stationary target handovers, the FCR has the capability to handover two targets to the same missile. If the FCR acquires two targets with zero velocity within a certain footprint, it may supply both target vectors to the missile.
