Q

Using the TOI display on a timed attack, timing is less accurate as the azimuth increases past ___*?

A

120*

Q

Which LOAL mode allows for attacking faster moving vics due to an expanded target handover boundary?

A

Direct

19
Q

What aids the sensor in successful track establishment on a moving Vic during MTE?

A

LTM

23
Q

Regarding laser safety, which LRD & LTM statement is FALSE?

A

The safe range of the LRD is 5km

24
Q

What is the JDAM?

A

GPS/INS guidance kit

25
Q

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?

A

R9E

26
Q

What provides terminal guidance for the 114?

A

Laser energy

27
Q

What is the 114s strongest asset?

A

Accuracy

28
Q

What GBU 12 impact angle will enhance accuracy potential?

A

Greater than 35*

30
Q

For GBU12 attacks, there is no splash, what are the appropriate no-spot procedures?

A
