If a GBU 38 status reads MIN RAIL, what is the TXA quality?
Greater than 2
When conducting time corrections for timed attacks, how long should a 360 SRT take?
2 minutes
Using the TOI display on a timed attack, timing is less accurate as the azimuth increases past ___*?
120*
Which LOAL mode allows for attacking faster moving vics due to an expanded target handover boundary?
Direct
What aids the sensor in successful track establishment on a moving Vic during MTE?
Positioning the AC so the sensor only has a single-axis stick control
What aids the sensor in successful track establishment on a moving Vic during MTE?
Positioning the AC so the sensor only has a single-axis stick control
During MTE, what is not an advantage of a wheel hold?
Constantly rotating picture
Which laser acts as an invisible pointer to covertly illuminate a target for friendlies with NVGs?
LTM
Regarding laser safety, which LRD & LTM statement is FALSE?
The safe range of the LRD is 5km
What is the JDAM?
GPS/INS guidance kit
Which 114 has a heavy metal case with an internal frag sleeve and cockpit-selectable fusing built primarily to enhance penetration before using blast frag as a weapons effect?
R9E
What provides terminal guidance for the 114?
Laser energy
What is the 114s strongest asset?
Accuracy
What GBU 12 impact angle will enhance accuracy potential?
Greater than 35*
What model is used to determine the CCRP?
20% wind model: surface winds are only 20% of the winds at altitude
For GBU12 attacks, there is no splash, what are the appropriate no-spot procedures?
Laze for 15seconds after the expected time of impact, cease laser, zoom out, conduct rolling box IR search for it

Employ on azimuth from a rear aspect
What is true about MTE?
Feature track is the primary method
What is FALSE about the proper use of manual iris camera optimization?
It can greatly reduce the risk of significant IR return washout
