Ch.5 Flashcards
A process that prosecutes targets identified too late, or not selected, for action in time to be included in deliberate targeting but when detected meet criteria specific to achieving objectives.
Dynamic Targeting (DT)
What is F2T2EA?
Find
Fix
Track
Target
Engage
Assess
F2T2EA:
Targets are identified and classified
Find
F2T2EA:
Determine location of potential target
Fix
F2T2EA:
Target is observed and activity is monitored
Track
F2T2EA:
Decision is made to engage target, means to do so are selected and coordinated
Target
F2T2EA:
Action is taken
Engage
F2T2EA:
Focuses on result of engagement, Battle Damage Assessment is critical
Assess
Verify specified elements of ROE, PID, and CDE
Investigate
ROE, PID, coordination of forces, and commander’s guidance requirements have been satisfied. CDE must be accomplished prior to employing ordnance.
Target
Clearance to employ ordnance on surface target coordinates.
Smack
Process of attaining characterization of detected objects in operational area sufficient to support an engagement decision
CDE
Provides authority of engagement of specific target types and functions and delineates the rules governing use of force
ROE
Derived from observation and analysis of target characteristics. Criteria will be determined by the ROE.
PID
Mission flown for the purpose of detecting targets and coordinating or performing attack or reconnaissance on those targets.
Strike Coordination and Reconnaissance (SCAR)
Asset responsible for, but not limited to, coordinating multiple flights, detect and attack targets, neutralize enemy air defenses, and provide BDA’s within an area. Primary link between AR/AI assets and C2.
